POINCARÉ Raymond [Bar-le-Duc, 1860 - Paris, 1934], lawyer, F - Lot 50
POINCARÉ Raymond [Bar-le-Duc, 1860 - Paris, 1934], lawyer, French politician, President of the Republic. Set of 4 autograph letters signed. to Henri Roujon: 1908: "I will reread with joy your delicious "En marge". I am delighted to see them published by Hachette. Here you are definitely safe from trouble. To M. Javel; 1929: "With my best thanks and congratulations for the very nice copy of P. Valéry's speeches." December 20, 1929; 2 pages in-4°. "I am a little surprised at the way I am treated this morning in the Ami du peuple. I am not in the habit of asking newspapers for corrections, and this is probably the reason why Mr. Francois Coty is renewing completely erroneous allegations against me. [I have never been a supporter of the policy of the lesser evil. But, on the eve of a financial catastrophe, I thought I had to sacrifice everything to the necessity of the moment: everything except order and law. Also, I never had towards the communists the weaknesses of which I am unjustly accused! It is not true that I exempted Mr. Cochin from deserved sanctions. On the contrary, I asked for them from the Senate, which refused to follow me in a trial for attacks on the security of the State. [I have never had the attitude that is attributed to me. It is also the case for all the rest, in particular with regard to the "salads" with the Soviets, that I have, on the contrary, broken, whereas they had been started before me and that I had been able to note the vanity of it ". October 18, 1930; 1 1/2 pages in-8°. "I read this morning, in the first column of the Ami du peuple, that in Geneva, in September 1928, M. Briand, acting in the name of M. Poincaré's "National Union" cabinet, had promised the evacuation of the Rhineland. I have never heard of such a promise and I do not believe that it was made. When I left the ministry in July 1929, the government over which I presided was entirely free to examine the question of evacuation as it saw fit. I had always thought - and repeated publicly - that we would hold our pledges until the Young plan was carried out. Attached is a signed letter to M. G. Bureau (1923), damaged.
