(OJtITUD PRESS ASSOCIATION COPIRIGHT.) (AUSTRALIAN - NZW ZEALAND CABLE ASSOCIATION.) j (Received 10th May, noon.) PARIS, 9th May. The Press gives prominence to Mr. Stanley Baldwin's statement in the House of Commons in regard to the German Note. The "Journal" says: "It is the de-! claration of a man in a bad temper, though he may not have realised it." The "Matin" declares:' "The. main point is that it seems to reproach France, officially this time, with the same lack of courtesy with which the British ) Press has already accused us." "La. Victoire" asks what interests the Allied nations have to serve in publicly picking at each other. It bad thought that this deplorable habit had disappeared with Mr. Lloyd George. "L'Eclair" says that in order to embarrass Mr. Bonar Law, M. Poinoare only need submit Prance's debit account for the devastated areas and ask iM& great man of justice whether France or Germany should pay.
