"We nave no hatred In our henrt," ex* claimed the' French premier. In one breath, only to rend from Lndendorff* book a moment later extolling the philo sophy of war and the spirit of revenge.) The French premier insisted that Ger many still has the capacity for military mischief and that If the task of defense Is left to France alone, her standing Hrrny Is the best means of keeping . Get-many In leash. The French premier with all the ora torical nrts for which French puhllo | officials are famous, made a deep 1m- i i?eAual..i. l.nt It ..r.ttm.f )?*? hjfll/1 t))Of t)\r?

For months the stories from abroad have been easting | doubt about the power of Germany to j make war for generations to rome. The I Impression on the official mind here was hardly changed by the French pre. i mler's address. I.Ike the British, many! American* fo?>l that the standing army of France Is only keeping nllve the hatreds of war and the fires of possible I conflict. HuVlt Is recognized that how iner Premier ltrlnnd himself mny bo willing to admit that, there Is merit Tti the Idea of reducing the French mili tary forces as Ccrmany shows more and more signs of pacific intention, the dan ger of (ojo.lt a speech In Its effect on the French parliament could he foreseen.

The re- t ductlon of the army will he opposed by those elements Indefinitely and appeals, to French public opinion on the basts of insecurity are so easily made thnt to hold himself In po'wor >f.

Helped, at Home. Premlet i;.:;r.s will he helped, they think, by his speech at Washington. It lays the French case before the whole world, fur It was rallied and wirelessed and telegraphed to the four corners of the earth. As a publicity opportunity. It was worth more than years of effort through Indirect channels. The expec tation Is that Premier Ilrland will be upheld In the chamber of deputies when he gpts homo and that Rene VIvtanL who takes his place as the head of the French mission, can afford to pursue a middle of the road policy here based, of course, on the Instructions of Premier Brland when he Is back In France, and knows the limits to which die may go In considering land armament. If It Is In deed taken up. The general feeling Is that the whole subject will be sidestep ped and possibly transferred to the league of nations, which Is investiga ting It with a special commission head ed by the same Rene Vlvlanl who sits here as the official representative of France.
