PRESIDENT SPEAKING AT MANCHESTER SAYS
NOT ONLY PEACE OF EUROPE, BUT THE
PEACE OF WORLD BEING SOUGHT
PARIS, Dec. M. Addressing the chamber of deputies
today. Premier Clemenceau made it plain that it was his
intention to .suppoit Great Britain in the peace negotia
tions on the question of the freedom of the seas, and he
declared that his attitude was approved by President
Wilson.
Olemenceau was given a vote of confidence of 380 to
KM, after a stormy debate.
Clemenceau indicated his preference for the old system
of alliance, called the balance of power.
Referring to his recent conference with President Wil
son, he said : "I should not be telling the truth if I said I
had always been in agreement with him on all points."
PARIS, Dec. IH). - President Wilson is expected to go to
Italy Wednesday night, and to leave on February 10th for
the United States.
MANCHESTER, England, Dec. 30. America is not in
terested in Euiopean politics, but in a partnership of right
between Ameiica and Europe, declared President Wilson,
on receiving the freedom of the city today.
The Americans are not interested merely in the peac
of Europe, but in the peace of the world. It the future had
nothing for us but a new attempt to keep the world at a
right poise, b. a balance of power, the United States
would take no interest in it, because she will join no combi
nation of power, which is not a combination of us all," he
said.
