british WAR MISSION LEAVES

AFTER SIX WEEKS 81
CONFERENCE HERE
Result of Visit is a Complete
Understanding Between
the Two Countries.

WASHINGTON. May 1.-The Brit
ish war mission left American soil and
crossed into Canada today after SIX.
weeks Of conferences, which have
reached into every phase OF American
life. and are expected vitally to affect
the future of This country, if not OF
the world.
Confidence and sympathy born ;ots
personal contact Of British and Amefi..
can officials cannot be measured I'm
words Uncertainty has been removed
and i'm efficient cooperation made;
possible by an exact definition OF the
resources and needs Of the TWO na:,
lions. This country knows the allies
needs in detail and in the order OF.
their importance: the allies know
Am.r;caS resources. and the degree,
of their availability. Thus it is pos.
siblc for the United States TO enter:
into cooperation with the grand ALI.
ance in the way calculated to brtng
success. -
There have been no formal agree:
,ments or binding treaties. Forelgn
Secretary Balfour said upon his ar
rival the United States would NOT ne,
asked nor expected, TO abandon ltS
traditional policies, even 10 the extent
of declaring against q separate peace.
Much that has been tentatively
agreed upon cannot finally be put into
effect until legislation has been passed
by congress. The great benefit OF the
missions visit. however. has been the
decisive advice OF men who have ac-
tual!y been in the fire OF this war
who have made desirable pollcles

Great Britain and the United States
