Paris. Sept. 24.-premier Poincare
made three speeches Sunday at Cham
penoux, foul and Bots lie Pretre-in
none of which did he make even the
most distant reference TO the visit Of
/. Stanley Baldwin, the British prime
minister to Paris. The speeches might
have been written before that event, in
fact.
The point NJ. Poincare sought to
,mal:e clear was that Germany must
not expect TO be able TO make the col
lapse of passive resistance in the
Ruhr a means for driving a bargain
with France or of obtaining any con-
cession.
In inaugurating a monument to the
war dead at Champcnoux. in the CEN
ter of the World War battle line on
Grand Couronne heights, Premier
Poincare said that such ceremonies
were not ir.endei u fIE GATED or re-
sentiment, but merely TO glorify the
heroism of those who fell in the cause
of justice and liberty.
He expressed surprise that Germany
was forgetting the generosity of the

has determined that Germany shall
not revive such precarious peace,
must rid herself Of old imperialistic

officials recalled the public storm
against the efforts of Americans to
recover the body of Pocahontas. whose
exact resting place never was defin-

pointed out that Governor Ogle-
thorpe's grave was distinctly identified
by n memorial tablet. which records
