Crowd Greets Clemenceau
on Landing-at Havre.
FRENCHMAN VOICES HOPE
Good Results, It Is Believed, Will
Come of Trip to America;
Message Is Sent Across.
HAVRE, Dec. 20. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) Georges Clemenceau
arrived home from his American
pilgrimage today in a typically
hilarious mood, but apparently suf
fering from fatigue.
The Tiger received representa
tives of the press in his stateroom
as the liner Paris was entering port.
A large crowd of relatives and
friends, as well as correspondents
and .. photographers, also greeted
him' before the steamer docked.
Clemenceau began hLs visit with the
newspaper men by denying various
interviews printed in the French
press, particularly one sent from
New York to the Petit Parisien.
The former premier had a very
stormy voyage. He appeared gay
and vivacious but under the surface
his friends saw that his experience
in the United States had been al
most too much for him. He will
go it hia Paris home for two weeks
and then take a long rest at his
country place in the Vendee at St.
Vincent du Jar.
Clemenceau Voices Hope.
"I hope for good results from my
trip to the United States," said M.
Clemenceau to the Associated Press.
"However, .let the people decide. I
put my thoughts fully before them
and they have certainly got sense
enough to judge. It was apparent
that - there was a vast amount of
interest in me personally for which
I am moat grateful. It was a rare
compliment."
Later he added: "Maybe it is too
soon, but it is my best opportunity.
Say, please, to our friends in the
United States: Hy first thought on
sight of France was that I was
glad to be home; second, that I was
sorry I had left the United States.
" 'Merry Christmas and a happy
new year from an old friend.' "
Asked what he thought of the
reparations Question and also the
possible occupation of the Euhr, the
Tiger said:
"I: fear for German strikes there
In case of occupation. This is all I
will say on this subjest for publi
cation.'" Visit South Unlikely.
Regarding a suggestion that he
visit South America, M. Clemenceau
said?
"I am sorry, but not now at any
rate; possibly in my next life."
Clemenceau then withdrew into hia
shell, as he himself suggested.
'I am like that pair of tortoises
I presented to, Mademoiselle Sorel,"
he said. "There are times when I
pull in my head."
Among the many packages in
charge of his valet, Albert Boulin,
were two cases of grapefruit. I
"I. shall live as long as that sup
ply lasts," said Clemenceau. "I love
them too much to die before eating
them. Anyway, they are certain
contributions -to longevity."
The Tiger declined to be photo
graphed on landing.
"No, I won't," he exclaimed to the
newspaper camera men. "I have suf- i
f ered a thousand times. It is enough,"
As he walked down the gangplank
today the crowd on the docks
cheered. He got into the front seat
of a waiting limousine, chatted with
the chauffeur a moment and then
was driven toward Paris.

Country Generally In Mourning
for Late Executive Many
Mnrder Arrests Made.
WARSAW, Dec. 20. (By the As
sociated Press.) In anticipation of
the convening today of the national
assembly which ultimately is to
choose a president in succession to
the late Gabriel Narutowicz, the
government last night took meas
ures to check possible untoward
events.
Under the Polish constitution the
national assembly is the electoral
college, and each of the 444 deputies
and the 111 senators has a vote in
the choice of a chief executive.
The government, in its efforts to
determine whether a plot existed for
the murder of President Narutowicz,
is continuing to effect searches and
arrests among the nationalists, and
many hig officers . and officials
have been arrested or dismissed.
The country generally is in mourn
ing for the late president and the
government has ordered all officers
to wear a crepe armlet for six
weeks. All big public entertain
ments have been suspended for the
rest of the season in respect to the
president s memory.
PARIS, Dec. 20. (By the Associ-
ated Press.) An Increasing proba
bility that Marshal Pilsudski, former
chief of the Polish state, will be
come a candidate for the presidency
of Poland in the election to fill the
vacancy caused by the assassination
of President Narutowicz is reflected
in dispatches received by the French
foreign office. The marshal's inter
vention to prevent reprisals against
the nationalists after the assassina
tion of the president, Is said greatly
to have strengthened his position
and those in closest touch with the
situation assert he will now be able
to muster such majority as to re
move his own objections to his candidacy.

Royal Party Arrives in New York
on Sight-Seeing Tour of
United States.
NEWATORK, Dec. 20. (By the
Associated Press.) Princess Anas
tasia of Greece, arriving on the
Olympic today for a visit to her
native land, at once set about the
business of scotching the "American
dollar princess" legend which has
followed her since she married
Prince Christopher, brother of King
Constantino of Greece.
Standing beside her royal spouse,
who came along for a sightseeing
tour. Princess Anastasia declared
that, reports to the contrary not
withstanding, she had not expended
one penny of the fortune left her
by her late husband, William B.
Leeds, "the tinplate king," to help
the cause of Constantine or of any
political action in Greece.
She declared herself a neutral in
Greek politics, asserting that aside
from purely family sympathies
which naturally follewed the. for
tunes of the royal family into which
she had married she had no Inter
est in politics whatever.
Constantine, .who has abdicated,
has not the slightest wish to return
to the throne, she said. She added
that she had no wish and no expec
tation of ascending the throne with
Christopher.
Prince Supports Wife.
Prince Christopher backed ihis
wife up In her statement that their
aspiration did not tend towards the
throne.
"I have no ambitions to be king,"
he declared. "Morever, I am eight
or nine times removed from the suc
cession, and there is little likelihood
of my ever ascending the throne."
The prince said he expected to
travel for about three months as
nearly Incognito as he could man
age and declared he hoped that no
fuss would be made over him.
"I don't want lavish entertain
ment," he declared. "I want to see
America as the Americans know it."
Asked if he had any thought of
going into business, either here or
in Greece, the prince ehook his head
smilingly, and said:
'Tm afraid I haven't the head for
it."
Princess Anastasia emphasized
that she and the prince had not
come to America on any sort of
mission, political or otherwise, as
serting they had come merely for
a visit.
It was her first visit in, ten years,
she said, while it was the first time
the prince had been in America.
She commented a little wistfully
that it seemed strange to be passing
the statue of liberty as "an alien."
She lost her American citizenship
when she married Christopher.

morals wore their hair bobbed, it
