CLEMENCEAU ADDRESSED
NEWSPAPER EDITORS
New York, Nov. 21.—Georgs
Clemenceau, advocate of France
unleashed his oratory yesterday be-
of the most critical audiences
he is likely to face in America.
Appearing for a fiifteen-minute talk
before a group of newspaper editors
and publishers at a luncheon arranged
by Ralph Pulitzer of the New York
World, the venerable Tiger plunged
so deeply into the subject closest
his heart that it was fifty-eight
before he couhj find a stopp.
ing place.
His auditors represented many
shades of political opinion. Among
them were men who had written edi.
torials criticising his views
politics. But at the end of his address
they were all agreed on one thing:
That Clemenceau is passionately in
earnest about the cause of France,
and that his addresses will be well
worth hearing.
The speech was delivered behind
dosed doors and It was generally
lgrced that it'should not he repot
But it was authoritatively described
is follows:
“M. Clemenceau made a speech that
was marked by extraordinary elo-
juence, frankness and sincerity.
“He said he had not come to Amen
ta to tell the Americans what they
ihoqjd do, but to show them what
France needs.
'His address was a complete, can.
did discussion of the situation as he
it and was marked throughout
by deep emotion.
“He specifically requested that no
textual references be made, as he
wished to reserve the matter for his
public addresses.”
Col. Stephen Bonsai, who is im
mediately in charge of the Clemen-
tour said last night he did not
know how long tho Tiger would
his first public addrets, to
be delivered this evening in the
Metropolitan Opera House.
“We have urged him, for his
health’s sake, to limit himself to an
hour,” he said, "but he may speak
i. But, however long he speaks,
there is no doubt but that he will
hold his audience.”
