characterized here as the most enthusi'
astic demonstration for peace that Eu-
rope has seen since the war began

ton that certain ones Of the belligeren'
nations were willing to negotiate tol

behind the expedition. We have every
assurance that our project will NEE,

for what he characterized the presi-
