ILLNESS OF MARSHAL
FOCH SLIGHTLY BETTER MESSAGE FROM QUEEN MARY (Australian and N.Z. Press Association) (United Service) PARIS, Wednesday. The latest bulletin concerning the condition of Marshal Foch says he has suffered no aggravation of his trouble. The doctors say his constitution is robust, but this is a most dangerous attack. In war-time language, they say, “the enemy has been slightly re-, puldes all along the line.” Marshal Foch has received a telegram from Queen aMry, in which in the friendliest language she expresses her hopes for his recovery, and says that if iKng George were well enough he would have telegraphed personally. The Jueen’s message is very highly appreciated in France. The Paris correspondent of the “Daily Express” says there is much anxiety, in spite of the reassuring bulletin. Marshal Foch, who is a fervent Roman Catholic, asked to see a priest, who paid him a short visit, but refused to make any statement.
