The covering letter from M, Clemen- ceau, President of the Peace Confer- enec, to Count von Brockdorfft-Rant- tau, President of the German delega- tion, was in part as follows: “In the view of the Allied and Asso- elated Powers, the war which began Aug. 1, 1914, was the greatest orime against humanity and freedom of the people that any nation calling itself ever consciously mitted, For many yeqrs the rulers of Germany, true to the Prussian tradi- tion, strove for a position of domi- nance in Europe.
