shall try on this occasion, at any rate,
to relieve the country Of the fear OF
| his misbehavior.
Il am particularly glad that this
great vessel, which | have so much
admired should represent some part
jof the reciprocity and connection be-
tween the United states of America
+ and the great republic of Argentina.
We have been the more glad to be
instrumental in supplying you with
/ this great arm of war because we are
sure that neither OF us will ever use
such an arm against the other.

ments Of my fellow countrymen when

of affection as well as understanding
for the other countries of the great

Justice, Fairness and Good VIII.
! ct is a fine thing to believe-and
! | believe it in the midst of this
period Of war-that the real ground
OF respect is justice and fairness ana
Igood will that you can not respect n
man or a nation for which you can
mot sooner or later acquire an attec-
ition. And the great advantage OF
Iintermxture. not only of actual in
ItermiXture of blood, but of constant
intercourse between nations is that
there grows up a common under
istanding. We speak different lam
lguages. we have followed to some eN-
tent different customs and we nave
Ito some degree different national
traditions, but at the bottom we nave
got lust the same sort of hearts and
UNDERSTANDINGS and the same essen
itial interests and when we mix with
.one another and touch hands We are
lapt to touch hearts also.
Il want to congratulate you upon
| the completion Of this ship and upon
all that she stands for in the way ol
reciprocity between ourselves and the
great country you represent, and ]
want to express my feeling as presi-
dent of the United States that we
are rapidly approaching day Whcn
the Americans will draw together as
they have never drawn together pe-
fore and that it will be a union, not
of political ties but Of understandings
and mutual hclpfulness; ,,

success Of your president your gov

have the greatest respect
