rendering homage to the sentiments
which inspired the message of your
majesties addressed to me. They
appreciate fully the loftiness and
courtesy of it.
No nation is more pacific than the
French nation. No nation has made
more sacrifices to European peace.
France already often has made
known and recalls again today that
she was and remains determined to
welcome all possibilities of assuring
just and durable peace among all
peoples.
Only peace founded on justice is
in effect durable. France has taken
arms to put a definite end to enter
prises Of violence and force, which,
for two years, in contempt Of the
most solmen engagements, in VIOLA
ton of the pledged word, already
has subjugated or destroyed three
nations in Europe and today menace
the security of all nations. Lasting
peace, therefore, can only be estab-
lished by reparation of the injus-
tlceS that force imposed on Austria,
Czecho-Sloyakia and Poland. It can
also only be in a measure where
some effective guarantees of politi-
cal and economic order assure for
the future the respect and liberty
of all nations.
Mankind will only be delivered
from worry or anguish if it has GER
tainty that new attempts against
right henceforth are forbidden.
Any solution that would conse-
crate the triumph of injustice would
procure for Europe only precarious
truce, with no relation to the legi-
innate stable peace which your
majeSties advocate.
Today it is up to Germany. not
France, to pronounce herself for or
against this peace, to which aspire

Bus drivers may be given special privileges in traffic when they're be- hind the wheel of @ huge vehicle but when they're walking they must obey signals just as other pedes- trianS.
 Traffic OfIlcer Robert Phelan used that slogan effectively late yesterday when he placed Charles Dumaine, B, of l93 Willow street, e bus driver, under arrest on charge of breach of the peace.
 Traffic was exceedingly heavy in Exchange place. Officer Phelan waved traffic ahead, and ordered pedestrians to remain at the side- walk. Dumaine, in his bus drivers uniform, pushed forward in viola ton of the officers signal and started to weave through traffic and cross street
 "Get back there,' ordered Officer PhelNn.
 Dumaine pushed forward and brushed aside the outspread arms of the policeman. A scuffle ensued and Dumaine made his way to the other side Of the street. The offi- cer followed him and ordered him to report to police court this morn- ing.
 Perhaps I'll be there" said Dumaine,
 You had better" retorted Phelan
 Dumalne failed to appear this morning and Judge Edward J. Mas colo ordered Lieut. Ernest Pakul tc pick him up and bring him to tho station.
 He will be arraigned in city court tomorrow. Phelan said that the only reason he did not bring DumainC to the station yesterday was tha Dumainc was scheduled to reliev, another bus driver at the very mo- ment.
