In handing you my report, [ wish
to state that my hardest task has been
to condense matter, and in so doing l
feel that it IS an injustice to hundreds

tlemen who knew of no limit in their
endeavor to extend in their welcome
and hospitality a reception never be
fore accorded party of visitors in
any country
