Apparently they are acting under official instruc- tions that nothing be said to alienate American sympathy. Undoubtedly the passage of the Knox resolution, ith the apparent certainty of a separate peace, is a bitter blow to the Freuch, but the blow has been so long ex- pected that the shock is lessencd. rt that the United its rights and that its attitude to- ward the allies is “correct.” Hope for Understanding. hope that the United States ally will unde ilts of the English policy of delay says Le Temps. “The American Seng N just voted the Knox resolution. We are not surprised that Americans wish to fix the results of their victory themselves and not depend upon any- body else to assure the application of the treaty which they will sign. At- tached to them by unshakable affec- tion_and by love of peace and inde- pendence, we respect their rights and have confldence that they will recog- nize ours.” It is_striking how earnestly of- ficial France is endeavoring to re- tain_the sympathy and support of! the United States. Stephen Lauzanne, | who perhaps occuples the position of official spokesman for France, tells the writer he is confident of American moral support for France. He has just returned from the United States, where he accompanied the Viviani mission. Ask Only Moral Support. “The Viviani mission was a com- plete success,” said M. Lauzanne. “M. Viviani did not have the slightest intention of asking for the remission of France's debt to the United States, but he was most anxious to_explain the needs of France to the Harding administration. He found American sympathy for this country strength- ened. It assures American support to France in her policy of collecting the reparations.” “What is essential to France In the event that the United States makes a separate peace With Ger- many?” I asked. “If it follows the main lines of the treaty of Versailles it will be entirely satisfactory,” was the reply. “What material support does France desire from the United States for the French policy toward Germany™ “None whatever.

Washington. had not pros ced sufficient evidence. r. leading counsel for {the caveators,” announced that he would appeal the case to the supreme court of Georgia. This is the third e that the Washington will case has been tried. Under the will of Hugh V. Washington, who claimed to have been a relative of the family of George Washington, Mrs. E. W. Bellamy, a sister, was given the bulk of the estate. There were gifts to the Missouri Historical Soclety and to the aDughters of the American Revolution and also to_several col- leges. Heirs of Robert Porter Wash- ington, a brother of H. V. Washing- ton, altacked the will on the ground that its maker was of unsound mind and that Mrs. Bellamy used undue in- flucnce over him. From the estate Mrs. Bellamy al- ready has given a 00 public 1i- brary to the city of Macon, named in honor of Hugh V. Washington. The case has been on trial here since the first of last week.

Senator Jones of Washington Speaks for American Vessels, Senator Jones of Washington, chair- man of the Senate commerce com- mittee, advocated measures for the stimulation of American ship- ping during the debate in the Senate Monday. He declared that he might even go to the extent of requiring Americans to travel on American vessels. Senator Kenyon, republican, Iowa, said that Americans should travel and ship all their freight on American vessels, which, he said, had “a fight on their hands” in the marine traffic contest. Instances of alleged discrimination against American shipping were re- cited by Senator Jones. Canadian importers, he said, had agreed that all of their imports from Jamaica should be transported only om Ca- nadian ships. Another case reported by Senator Jones was on underbidding by Brit- ish vessels of American ships for Cuban sugar cargoes. After getting into ocean transport associations with difficulty, Senator Jones said that American ships bids for the Cuban sugar cargoes according to the as- sociation tariffs and were then under- bid by British vessels. _ ‘WIFE ASKS LIMITED mvoncns Mrs. Mary A.
