Franco-German Entente.

New York Times 100 years ago today, October 7, 1912:
Would Mean World Peace, Frenchman Tells Germans.
    HEIDELBERG, Oct. 6.— At the first meeting of the German National Conciliation Association to-day, Baron d'Estournelles de Constant, the French delegate, advocated a Franco-German entente, which, he urged, would powerfully promote world peace.
    The meeting was held in University Hall, 200 delegates being present, including twenty professors of international law. The association voted to ally itself with French and American organizations for occasional co-operation.
