Around the hospitable table in the state dining room, as the guest f President Harding. the aged Tiger planned to press home upon the head of the American government hi3 oft repeated arguments for American aid in Europe. M. Clemenceau's visit to the White House today his second and last brings to a virtual close hla "mission" to America, & Journey undertaken at the age of 81. and carried out with the impetuous order of a man half his age. He has given America his message from the leotural platform. He has interviewed Woodrow Wilson and today he brings his trip to the culminating point with a frank talk with Prestlent Harding. The Tiger has expressed neither disappointment over his short talk with Mr. Wilsin. His visit to Mr. Wilson, however, was so brief, lasting but 13 minutes, that he did not have an opportunity to discuss in any detail
