So many rumors have been current in regard to the Memoirs of Georges Clemenceau, "Les Grandeur et Miseres d'une Victoire," which he was writing up to the time of his last illness that French officials and two members of the French Academy have examined the work and have signed a document in regard to the state in which Clemenceau left it. The ex-Premier's son, Michael Clemenceau, has just sent this document to Harcourt, Brace and Company who will publish the book, uncensored, in America under the title "Memoirs of a Victory". The document states that the work was completely finished by Clemenceau and that nothing remains to he done except a final revision for the press, undertaken by his daughter, Madame Jacquemaine, under M. Clemenceau's directions, and the insertion in the text of a few documents which M. Clemenceau had entrusted to her to insert in their proper place.
Publication will take place simultaneously in France, England, and America the middle of March.
