BRITAIN’S EFFORT.

IN THE GREAT WAR. FOCH’S TRIBUTE. (Received Monday, 9.10 a.m.) , PARIS,. Sunday. “It is strange for anyone to’think nue capable of forgetting what France owes to the British Army, and to Field Marshall Haig,” says Martial Foch in an article regarding the Armistice Day controversy. “I did not claim that the generalissimo had the vast word regarding the 191 S offensive.; on the contrary, I .sometimes adopted Field Marshal Haig’s plans in preference to my own. Every time I am in danger of forgetting what France, owes Britain, 1 make a pilgrimage to the shrines of the dead. I paid such a visit on the eve of the day on which I am credited with aspersions on the British Army. Could I return from that sacred spot and speak words, of carping criticism.”
