REPLIES to‘

tntsltnnvrn

MHZ, France, Aug 14—Pl‘€ﬂ1lﬂ' Edouard Herriot replied in forceful terms today to references by Presi- dent Herbert Hoover ancl United States Secretary of State Henry I... Stimson in recent speeches on the Briand-Kellogg peace pact.

At the opening of the Mcselle canal he declared that while France was on the side of peace she must be forever viligant be- cause she still was confronted with "appeals to violence." We hear the voices of friends who assure us that war has been forever exercis- ed," he said. “We would like to be- lieve them and without delay u- sociate ourselves with their op- timlsm.

"It is easier to conceive in a country practically inviolate than on this soil so often tom up. De- spite the sclemnest engagements, despite the Brlsnd-Kelfogg pact whleh~ Secretary Stimson recently commented on in such elevated terms, -we perceive also appeals tn violence and eulogles of war which we should be able to think had been stilled forever."
