TIGER OF FRANCE
TO WRITE AGAIN
Pleased With Reaction Of His
Debt Letter

Saint Vincent Sur lard, Vendee
France, Aug. 80 M. Clemenceau
Frances war premier, will likely
write another open letter on the sub
iect of debts, following up that ad-
dressed to President Coolidge on
August last. This was announced
semi officially from the old Tigers
retreat in Vendee yesterday.
Pleased With Reaction
NJ. Clemenceau took occasion to
say he was quite pleased with the
reaction of his Coolidge letter,
poked a little fun at Senator Borah
and divulged the reasons why he
wrote the original letter-hitherto
attributed to variously and widely
divergent motives. The father of
victory" also expressed the opinion
enger debt agreement stood little
chance in the French parliament,
and finally reiterated forcibly his de-
cision to refrain from participation
in active politics forever.
81 may write another letter on
debts; 1 still have something to say:
1 have not said it all. One must al
ways keep the last cartridge in his
belt"
The interview is published by
L'Avnir, NJ. Bure quoting M. Glenn
enceau direct.
Quite Satisfied
The announcement came in reply
to NJ. Bure's query as to how the
war premier appreciated the reac-
ton to his world wide open letter
to President Coolidge.
quite satisfied" replied NJ.
Clemenceau.

at the right moment. l have re-
ceived tons Of letters of approval
from all the countries of the world,
others by unknowns; many were

tiers from young and old, letters
from women, letters from trades
men, merchants manufacturers, In
tellectuals, even from priests and
clergymen, letters from all classes
of society-except the parliament
tarians of France" the Tiger bit
off under his breath.
MANY of these letters came from
the United States. I specially
treasure some from young Ameri-
cans who enlisted in the French
Foreign Legion and fought under
our flag.
