ing Peace" Says BaIfour.

Sixteenth street, the members are rest
ing for the labors that await them.
The tension of the last ten days was
relaxed. So far as could be learned

When Mr.. Balfour left the presi-

mand," Godfrey Butler of the British
foreign office declared. "We hope to
be of assistance to the United States
in many ways
Zone Of the most important is to
point out the mistakes we made early
in the war. Those mistakes cost US
dearly. If the United States can learn
from them it will mean a great saw
ing in every way"
Great Britain's high commissioners
to the international war council to be-
gin in Washington this week, set foot
on American soil on Saturday.
The object of the commission, Mr..
BalfOur said, was ito make cO-opera-
ton easy and effective between those
who are striving with all their power
to bring about lasting peace by the
only means that can secure it-namely,
a successful war"
