What want to emphasize tonight Is
that our two nations. in working out their
great problems, after ALL are bearing US
towards the same goal, and should use
all their power to foster a clearer under
standing between their people. This Is
tho surest safeguard against future frlc-
'tion. We both have gone through similar

to these trials that the great qualities
which you possess in common have been
fully developed. You already understand

yourselves. They have become your kin.
I hope the day will come when you will
know us all Just as we'll. And right hero
it may not be amiss. perhaps. to observe
that great Is the obligation which the
press owes to the two countries. With an
independent press here and In Germany.
Is 1t not due to both our peoples that each
should not endeavor to understand each
other? Is It not worth their while to
strive to attain this end and display a
spirit Of mutual conciliauon7 To work
together for the larger understanding
which the interests of the two nations
demand?
