siderably the past month."
There has been much dissension
among the law-enforcement official

Irngih of milltury service In Fiance,
"Hut that wain't too bud, If It si
lo wed tt lo opisiM the (ierman front
until England and America appeared."
Ashed (o answer llllchcock' ques
tion about black troops, the "Tiger"
said "Hon" and waded In.
"In the flrat pluc there are no
blin k troop of occupation in the area
of occupation of the enemy. In the
second place l have een black Amer
ican troop at the front, and thy
stood the fire with bravery, too."
Just One Case,
"of course this tin nothing to do
with the question of whether we are
militarist or not. It I an attempt of
Ciermnn propngmida to oppose France
and America nnd obscure what Is
le.illy the great question.
'The rjerman and all of our foe

"The dfiy before I left Tans I
heard that these stories would be em
ployed to prove we were a militaristic

to gie me plain Information.
"The answer wns thiit there was
only one established caie of a
Senegalese having mistreated a Ger
man woman. He wns sentenced by a
military tribunal."
Troop Withdrawn.
The reason black troops were sent
into the occupation zone at first,
Clemenceau said, was to provide a
few months of home leave for the
while troops, "that bad uxl the fire
for year until Amrk could come,
and were rather rxhnu.ted "
"W could not fore.ee." he said,
"(hat It would be more objectionable
to the Cleriuim (ban to (he French
in whose (own tlioy hud been gur
risoned. When we learned It wa
they were withdrawn.
"'The Uvrmaii ohjoctlon was more
of a attrprlHO because they employed

them to the front wa Ihcruho no
mean of bringing them could be
found. They clnl find means (o In

Then (he "Tiger" ciime to tfenntor
Bornh's statement (hut lie, Clemen
ceau, wa responsible for most of
Europe's woes, ber.iuio of the trenty
of Vcrmillle.
Declaring that the criticism wns
exactly the opposite In his own coun
try, where he was assailed for not
demanding enough, he continued:
Wll limit Anient.
"Let thoe who suy I asked loo
much go to Kiiiope let them bring
their (Ierman friends, and let us settle
it there where It ran lie seen.
"Moreover, if loo much waa asked
at Versailles, which I do not believe,
yet 75 per cent of It hn been tnken
out without my assent and out of
my power,"
landing (he Interview, Clemenceau
declared his reception in America hud
been "greater than I was entitled to
expect."
"I was received us a friend, as a
son," he said. "Whiiiever happens In
the end I never shall forget It."
Then be added;
"Hut while expressing my deep
gratitude to all, 1 dire say I'd like to
