Abstract

A Message to Frenchmen
France, Anatole | March 29, 1922 issue

add to cart   close window

The spirit of war has outlived the war. The state is imbued with this spirit in its conduct of affairs; the diplomatic methods have not changed since 1918. It envelops foreign policy today with more clouds than ever, a cause of distress to inquiring minds. But they are few in number and the country, as a whole, follows docilely where it is led. It is forewarned of nothing. The great newspapers today, as in the time when the enemy occupied part of territory, go to the Ministry for the communiqué of the day and submit their pages to the visa of the censorship.
