The Premier said he was con

Cabinet were badly informed and
unfortunately disturbed by the com
ment of certain British interests
hostile to the alliance.

difficulties the Premier has cncoun
tered in his negotiations here.
While il seems inconceivable tha,
the Chamber would choose such u
moment as this to wrest the Premier
ship from BRAND, his position has been
rendered enormously difficult BY the
growth Of a conviction in some politi
cal circles in Paris that the Frencf
Premier has fallen completely under
the domination of Lloyd George
The famous expurgated copy o,
Lloyd Georges memorandum OF his
views on the proposed Anglo British
alliance was given out by the British
this afternoon. 1t points out the ne
cessty Of France and Great Britain
working together for the reconstrue-
ton of Europe and pledges British eio

in the event of new German aggression
against France
Subma rines Mentioned
AS stated in dispatches to Tie Tr;b-
une yesterday. Premier Lloyd George
does not promise an oHt- and out OF
fensive alliance 20 France because
France has alliances with other nations
which might be embarrassing 10 Great
Britain and because public opinion in
neither Great Britain nor the domn-
ions would agree to such a pact But
the guaranty OF Franco British cooper

German assault is definite. This. says
Lloyd George. will nave the whole
hearted support OF the dominions
But such an alliance must be accom-
countries. says Lloyd George, and he
goes on to outline the conditions ncces-
sary TIC this There is som ething Of ar
aftermath to the Washington confer
ence's deadlock on the submarine qucs-

! British viewpoint as expressed at
Washington. but there is added the
suggestion that the British and French
admiratcs can cooperate later in or
der that there shall not be competitive
naval building between the two coun
tries. The inference Of this portion
of the conditions is that Frances de
mand for submarines for her protection
will be disspatcd if she is allied with
Britain.
Unity on Russia Asked
Other conditions attached to thu
British agreement to an alliance with
France include her acquiescence to Rus
sian participation on the Genoa con
ference with the presence there Of res
Russian leaders. Agreement hetweer
France and Great Britain on the Neal
East also is demanded. To-day's doeu

which the original memorandum 4
understood to have been demanded
