This was the declaration OF Gordon

ridge went TO America with the ap-
proval OF the government to speak
with American business men with the
object Of securing a better under
standing and closer cooperation be-
tween the two countries.
Il found the United States splen-
dldly keen on this war proposition and
tremendously wrought up over il. but
az the same time recognizing the fact
thaL they are long way from the
war, and that their ideas about il are
almost entirely from Imagination. But
the spirit is exactly what all the allies
would wish IL to be. and they are
making preparations which I can hon
estly say were really a great eye
opener TO me.
The people are unselfish: they vol
unfairly ratiOned themselves before
the food controller came along. and
the young men are offering them
selves freely. The sons of all my
friends, I think. are in the army, the
navy or the flying corps.

alive with the interest of the war.

ment and for the government In fact,

teal standpoint and from the point
Of view OF the position which she
should take in the war. America is as
absolute and delightful an ally as we
would have her.
Her activities in all the various di-
recuons required by the war are really
extraordinary, and " hen the mistakes
