of assurance that Russia will accept
President Roosevelt's proposal and
the knowledge that the final consum-

ment Of a series Of questions OF para
mount Importance, requiring the most
careful diplomacy and extending over
weeks OF negotiation, coupled perhaps
with the recollection of a previous ex-
perience in the thorny path of the
worlds politics, seem to create dis
position to await final results. There
is, nevertheless, the keenest satisfac-
ton over the preliminary step and a
feeling of deep gratefulness over
President Roosevelt's action
There is also genuine thanksgiving
at the thought that the carnage and
horror and waste of war will soon end
and a genuine hope that the negotia-
tons will bring a satisfactory and en-

The national rejoicing and thanks
giving will probably be deferred until

that are newly imported from the
