MACDOHALD AND POINCAIRE WRITE AS MAN TO MAN Letters Bring About Better Feeling in England and France, . • Bn United Press LONDON’, March 3. —As man to man, Premier Ramsay MacDonald has written frankly to Premier Poincare about British suspicions of France, of the latter country’s vast aerial Meets and of French intentions “to gain what it failed to get during the peace negotiations.” Poincare, in a personal letter equally outspoken, defended France's policies. The correspondence, an entirely new development in European state-craft, is to continue. Two letters, MacDonald’s to Poincare of Feb. 21 and the French premier's prompt reply a few days later were published today. Previous letters were exchanged in January. The press of both nations attaches the utmost importance of the exchange of letters and applauds MacDonald for starting something new and helpful to allied diplomacy. The Paris morning papers foresee betterment of AngeloFrench relations and possible settlement of the chief outstanding prob lems as a result. Press Approves Notes The British press displays great care not to disturb the “atmosphere” created by the correspondence, general ly approves MacDonald's letter and the liberal newspapers acclaim the letters as “the most remarkable correspondence since the famous notes of Woodrow Wilson.” MacDonald on Feb. 21 wrote in part: “My dear premier: “I am encouraged by the friendly nature of the reply which you returned to my letter of Jan 36 to try and carry to a further stage the exploration of points that have raised some difficulties in the relations between our respective countries. Policy Is Dangerous “It is widely felt in England that contrary to the provisions of the treaty of Versailles, France is endeavoring to create a situation which gains for it what it failed to get during the allied peace negotiations. The view of this section of my countrymen is that the policy can only perpetuate the uncertainty and dangers of a condition not of peace, but of war and that in the end it will destroy whatever temporary security France can gain. “To my mind the question of security is not merely a French problem; it is an European problem. “The position of this country is entirely different. Our security on land and sea remains unmenaced, but our economic existence has been gravely endangered, owing not to the inability of Germany to pay a certain sum in reparations, but to acute and persistent dislocation of the markets of Europe occasioned mainly by the uncertainty in the relations between France and Germany, the continued economic chaos in Germany and the ultimate uncertainty of the relations between France and ourselves. Regard With Anxiety "Thus it has come about people in this country regard with anxiety what appears to them to be the determination of France to ruin Germany and to dominate the continent without conideration of our reasonable interests and the future consequences of an European settlement; that they feel apprehensive of the large military’ and aerial establishments maintained not only in eastern but also in west?rn Europe; that they’ are disturbed by the interest shown by your Governnent in the military organizations of the new states of Central Europe.” Finally, MacDonald said, the British people are disturbed by France’s attitude toward her debts. The British premier said he hoped by a united Anglo-French effort to reestablish the affairs of Europe so that .he United States could be induced to

Never Be/TTP 1 Without ft' ; • . One of the most disagreeable features of a cough is that it deprives one —and sometimes a whole household — precious sleep, and thus prepares the way for more serious ailment. Foley’s Honey and Tar Compound will relieve coughs. Children like it. As the writer of the following letter advises, “if you want rest at night—keep Foley’s Honey and Tar Compound on hand.” Gentlemen: The Foley’s Honey and Tar Compound is fine. My little girl had a bad cough. I got a bottle of Foley’s Honey and Tar Compound and gave her a few doses and she was greatly relieved. I think if any one ever used Foley’s Honey and Tar Compound they would never be without it. If you want rest at night especially where there are children keep Foley’s Honey and Tar Compound on hand.

cooperate in the general reconstruction. Poincare's reply was couched In sympathetic and friendly terms and disclaimed any idea of annexing German territory. The French premier expressed utter inability to comprehend how the British people could suspect the French of wanting anything to which they were not entitled, or of harboring “fratricidal” intentions toward England.
