PARIS, March 22.—A recon- ciliation between two _old-time political foes may be effected by the death of Marshal Foch. Premier Raymond Poincare has written a special personal letter to former Premier Georges Cle-- menceau, inviting him to be the guest of the government .in the official cortege at the funeral. The two statesmen had embraced one another at the entrance to Strasbourg in 1918, but have not met or spoken since. The war-time political leader was expected to depart from his | traditional avoidance of public appearance because of his un- bounded admiration for the defend the Constitution and laws and will be required to adhere to and sub- seribe to the canons of legal or judicial ethics prescribed by the American Bar Association, which is expected to co- | cmcrate in the completion of the or- | ganization of the new body. ‘The organization committee includes: | ‘Willlam Roy Vallance, assistant solicitor | of the Department of State. who is also | president of the Federal Bar Associa- | tion; Ralph G.

RESENTME?IT 1S SHOWN. Some Italians Take Umbrage at French Story of Piave Campaign. ROME, March 22 (#).—Some Italians today took umbrage at references in French g‘peu yesterday to the late Marshal Foch as organizer of the Italian resistance after the debacle at Caporet- to in 1917. Messagero in a front page article takes Le Petit Journal to task for such a comment and maintained that Marshal Foch advised the retreat to the Minclo River, while the Italian general, Cadorna, had up to November 31, ordered resistance along the Piave. “Purthermore,” the paper says, “the French troops which arrived as rein- forcements halted at Brescia by their chief’s orders and crossed to the Mincio only when the valor of our soldlers and the firm will of our chieftains had erected on the Piave an insurmountable barrier to the enemys advance.” ITALY MOURNS FOCH. News of Death Smoothes Troubled Relations With France. ROME, March 22 (#)—Whatever ing friction may have troubled re- tions between Italy and Prance during the past year, they seemed swept away today with the news of the death of Marshal Foch. Messagero described the marshal as “energetic, nervous, silent, ready in intuition, and rapid in action.” Medical Assistance by State. Dr. Matthias Nicoll, State commis- | when he died, described those last mo- who was at the side of the marshal ments: “He had been out of bed, sitting on a chaise longue, for thre-quarters of an hour before he died,” said Falaise. “He was more cheerful, gay and talkative than at any time for two or three weeks. He asked that his chair be moved near the window, from where he watched visitors enter and leave the courtyard. “We telked about many things: About ‘Toulouse, about the Easter holidays. The marshal’s little granddaughter was play- ing about with two books lying on a table next to the bed, books which the marshal intended to autograph for one of his friends. He questioned me about a bicycle trip I had taken in the French Alps, showing particular interest in which passes I had crossed and asking | many details. “When it was suggested that perhaps he was ready to return to bed, he sa: ‘I will remain here for a few m minutes’ When I had finished prepar- ing the bed, the marshal gripped the 2rms of his chair as if to rise'and said, ‘Let’s go ahead.’ Just then his head fell back; the end had come.” e igr, ALLEGED LAW VIOLATORS RELEASED FROM CHARGES Six Colored Persons Accused in Liquor Cases Released for Lack of Evidence.

Philip Pedro Davis, 28, colored, first block of Fitzmorris court, taken into custody by Laflin and McEwen Iast night, was released today.
