Georges Clemenceau had a series of striking head-lines which had been robbed of all their text. The intellectuals of Paris might not express an opinion save by permission of the military censors, most of whom, strangely enough, had German names. The civil police under direction of the Military Governor were very busy in Paris during the early days of the war.
Amherst looked up. "Did you show her over?" he asked with sudden interest. Duplain laughed slangily. "What? Me? And have Truscomb get on to it and turn me down?
