PARIS, November 16. M. Millerand, 'in a speech explaining ids political programme, expressed the opinion that the work begun at Geneva should be continued, though the only guarantee of the Disarmament Protocol lay in its appeal to the good faith of each nation. He thought it desirable that Germany should be admitted to tho League, but lie feared she might take advantage of admission to demand the revision of Treaties, to which France would never agree He regarded the Anglo-Franeo-Belgiaii Entente as an additional guarantee of peace, but insufficient to enable France to reduce her peace-time ftrniaments until .she obtained more effective safeguards The ex-President condemned tho Government’s action in recognising the Soviet, which was unnecessary. The British, Belgian and 1 talian efforts to establish business with Russia had ill failed. He also condemned the proposed suppression of the Embassy to the Vatican.
