Declaration OF Ideals.

Paris, March 11.-"President Will

have been moral refreshment to
France" said Albert Thomas, min
lister of munitions to the Associated
Press today. America comes forward
toward the end of the war with the
assertion of ideals, of which the Eu-
ropean peoples, amid all the strain of
combat. of hatred. of sufferings, of
determination for specific national
aims need to be reminded.
France has been stimulated, cheer
ed and supported by President Will
sons message to congress and by his
inaugural address"
What do you think are the i'm
mediate effects of the American rup-
ture with Ccrmany?" he was asked.
1.-THE hour that America is ac-
tually in the war" replied the minis
ter, the flow Of supplies will be re-
sumed at full tide and essentia,
credits will be easy. That is the way
it would seem now"
The active cooperation of the Unit
ed States in submarine chasing in
transport and in the supply of ma
terial and money would contribute
enormously to shortening the war"
said M. Thomas and he added: "It
would be an inspiration for France
to have an American contingent
fighting on this side."
