ABSTRACT
Lloyd George had shown peculiar prescience in seeking the support of Clemenceau for the projected Supreme War Council, for, on November 16th, two days after we left Paris, he had become President of the Council. On Clemenceau, therefore, fell the responsibility for establishing the new machinery at Versailles and setting it in motion. The last and the most important feature of the conference was the first meeting on December 1st of the Supreme War Council, in the new headquarters allotted to them by the French Government at the Hotel Trianon, Versailles. As the result of the discussion, eight resolutions were passed. Four related to the furnishing of information to the military advisers and the establishment by each country of military advisers and a secretariat, the other four to the investigation of the military situation on the French, Belgian, Italian and Balkan fronts.
