The German prefect once angrily said to him: "You are a real poison in this country, Herr Doctor!" and not very long before the war a German official to whom he was applying for leave to invite M.

When questioned, after the declaration of war, by M. de Vesme on the subject of the prophetic phrase, "I have been waiting for two years for the sequel of the prediction which you are about to read," Dr. Tardieu replied, on the 12th of August: "I have been waiting for two years; and I will tell you why.

M. Tardieu himself tells the story of all the efforts made, especially by Lloyd George and Bonar Law, to prevent the blunder which later on was endorsed in the treaty as Article 428. Lloyd George went so far as to complain of political intrigues for creating disorder on the Rhine. But Clemenceau took care to put the question in such a form that no discussion was possible.
No, she was resting. "How long have you been out?" She couldn't tell. Many weeks. And prospects for the immediate future? The Tournee Tardieu was coming next Monday to Avignon. She knew the manager.
