FINAL VICTORY
FOR ALLIES is
BALFOUR'S SAY
Tells United States Senate
Britain Has Met Many
Crises.

Following is the text of the adj
dress delivered by Foreign Minister
A. J. Balfour of the British war mis-
sion to this country, on the occasion
of the visit of himself and colleagues
to the United States senate:
"You, Mr.. President, have in grace
full and pregnant sentences brought
to our recollection the common or
fgin of those liberties which whether
in France, in Britain or in the Unit
ed States of America, we all reofce
in and are all determined to defend.
You have also in warm words of well
come spoken kindly of the mission
of which I have the honor to be the
head and to which you are now paying
the rare, the very rare honor of well
coming within your walls. On their
behalf not less than on my own
most sincerely thank you for your
welcome. I know well that it il not
a welcome to individuals.
1.-The kindness individually which
each one Of us as individuals has re-
ceiyed since we came to this great
city will never be forgotten by any
one of us. 1t has been q kindness,
abundant, overlooking, generous, I'M
limited but, ladies and gentlemen, be-
hind that individual kindness, behind
that kindness paid by individuals, to
individuals, the expression of a hos
pitable and generous feeling to guests
! within your walls, there is after all
something much deeper, something
much more, important, something
which is, after ALL the animating
spirit which brings thisI great as
sembly here today.
ttThe original object of our mission
il I may so express it, was a purely
business one or a mainly business
The Bridgeport evening farmer. [volume] (Bridgeport, Conn.) 1866-1917, 1917-05-11

one. We came here to. discuss mat
tiers of the deepest moment for the
conduct of that great war in which
both our nations are, involved. We
came here to explain to your leaders
and statesmen what were the needs
from which the allies mainly suffer-
ed, to lay freely at the disposal of
those responsible for the conduct of
your affairs the results of our exper-
fence, the consequences, perhaps !
ought to say, of our own errors and
b1unders during the two and oneehalf
years of strenuous and sanguinary
fighting.
Significance of Reception.
THAT was the original object That
was the business side of our mission
but the reception which you have
given US here the treatment which
we have received from the President
the Cabinet, the House of Represen.
tatiyes, the Senate---that treatment
raises the whole level Of our mission
fromAa purely business mission to &
great incident in the common life o,
two great and free peoples. go
IT do not think the Importance o.
that is easy to over-rate. I believe
Lnat the consequences Will not Dt
measured by any mere record Of thu
transactions that may take place be
tween our various governments, MOI
will the effects of it vanish when W,
ourselves, in consequence of the CALI
of duty elsewhere, leave your hospita
BILE city. This mission and tn,
French mission, which is associated
with it, mark a new epoch in the re
lations of our three countries, and
believe that in the alliance thus ce
mented lie secure some of the great
est hopes, some of the proudest ex
pectations which we dare to enter
tain about the future of civiliza
| ton.
| SIT Is not merely, however, you
kindness of heart which has givel
| this significance to contemporar,
| events. That significance is force,
| upon our notice whether we be citi
zens of America or citizens of Franc
or citizens Of Britain; but I speak es
pecially at this moment of citizens o
| America and citizens of Britain. 1
is forced upon our notice by the Han
wearied efforts of an unconscious Ger
| man propaganda.

| the Atlantic or on the other side o
the Atlantic, we English speaking
