 Situation in Europe
Declares That German Mili- tarists Are Planning a Coup Against Democratic Gov ernment.

New York, Nov. zt.-(By the A. P.)- The militarists in Germany already are preparing another war, George Clemen- ceau, war premier, of France, declared tonight in the first address of his Amer ican tour.
 Don't you read the newspapers?" he demanded. Don't you know what that means?"
 The Tiger of France, speaking fervent- ly before a packed house at the Metro politan Opera house reviewed the situa- tion in Europe, pointing to a reap- proactment of the Turks and soviet Russia as ominous war clouds. | In the meantime, he declared, Luden- dorff and other German militarists were planning coup, against the democratic l government there.
 Describing the present as time of greatest crisis" he urged that ts- l United States should renew conversa- tions with France and England, which, without definitely committing this coun- i try to any set program, would present to German, eyes picture of the three
 unpleasant folk who faced her in the iwar.
 l He said that sooner or later America
 would have to interest herself in the 1 postwar affairs of Europe, because she could not continue to be comfortable and wealthy if Europe was covered with blood.
 He expressed hope that the United States might establish plan as to what
 was to be done in carrying out the terms of the peace treaty and join with
 England and France in imposing it or 1 Germany.
 He was. frank in his criticism of Amer Iicas postwar attitude, declaring that Amefica had had large share in impos ing The peace terms and had a duty tc
 see that they were enforced.
 Challenging the worth of Germany! signature to treaty, the Tiger declared .that if. France had known 1918 tha separations would have been unpaiC
 four years later, she would have gon'
 on to Berlin.
 The Tiger received a great burst of ap plause for the assertion. I NJ. Clemenceau, who protested that h.
 came to America on no official mission
 but as a private citizen to present tn
 truth as he saw it,F declared that repa rations was an American idea, becaus
 President Wilson had come forward wit his famous 14 points and the armistic represented essentially the Americal point of view. At mention of Woodroy Wilson there was another great burst o : applause.
 Expressing the. hope that Americ
 could find some way of renewing conver l sations with France and England, look ing toward enforcement of the peac ! treaty. Clemenceau said: 'I don't want to speak of the league c q natieraI But I might. T might" :"
 The Tiger said he did not believe 1 ! the league as a means of preventing NTai : but that he believed it it as a means C arranging matters deferring war an
 giving peoples time-lto think. . You have seen one of the greates
 dramas in the world" he said. I we are now in the Hreatest crisi Nobody knows when it will end and whs : effect European misery may have 0 c American prosperity"
 Q He asked what American had mad n war for and wna: she had gained. - said America had come to the last poir - where she was granted time to think. n sacrifice was demanded of her except th II will to assert herself, as the people sh '- had Yanquished were unable to do any l- thing just at the present moment. l. M. Clemenceau, showing little sign n fatigue, spoke for nearly an hour an
 : a half.
 d There was only one bit of disturbanc f That was when heckler in the balcon d screamedNa few words.
 e Put him out" came cries from var s ous parts of the. house. n The Tiger never halted, continuing 2 d if the heckler had been mute. > Recognizing, Ignace Jan Paderewsk e famous musician, and former premier h Poland, in a box, the Tiger called c
 him to witEess the suffering and nis-.. tt dom to which Central Europe had bee It subjected by Germany and Austria. n The people of those countries, he d.
