President
Responding to.sn address made by
NJ Polncare. President Wilson snid;
Il thank you most sincerely for the
words that you have uttered. can
not pretend. sir. that tbs prospect Of
going home is not very delightful 10
me. but can say with the greatest
sincerity that the prospcct Of leaving
France Ia very painful 20 me.
II have received n peculiarly gen.
orous welcome here, and u has been
pleasing for me TO feel that that well
como was intended not so much for
myself al for tho people whom I rep.
resented. And tho people OF France
know how TO give a welcome that
makes a mans heart glad. They have
spontanelty about them. a SIM
rlicity OF friendship. which IL Alto
gether delightful.
STAY ENLIGHTE ENED BOTH
HEART AND MIND.
Il feel that my stay here. sir. has
enlightened both my heart and my
mind. II has enabled mo personally
to see the evidence OF the suffering
and the SACRIFICES OF France. II has
enabled mo TO come into personal
touch with the leaders OF the French
people. and through tho medium Of
Intercourse with them to inderstand
better. 1 hope, than understoo be-
fore. the motives. the ambitions and
the principles which actuate this
great nation. II has. therefore, been
TO me lesson In the roots OF friend
ship IN those things which make the
intercourse OF nations profitable ana
kind. .
sometimes the work OF the con-
ference has seemed to 20 very slowly
indeed. Sometimes II has seemed as
II there wero unnecessary obstacles
70 agreement, but as the weeks have
lengthened have seemed TO see the
profit that came out OF that. Quick
conclusions would not have produced
that Intimate knowledge OF each
others mind which I think has come
out OF these daily conferences.
We have been constantly in tho
presence OF each others minds and
motives and characters. and the COM

sort OF knowledge are aure to be very
much moro intelligent not only but
TO breed much more intlmate SYM
pathy and comprehension than could
otherwise be created.
These six months have been six
months which have woven new fibres
OF connection between the hearts OF
our people. and something more than
friendship and intimate sympathy has
como out OF this intercourse.
ONE PORTION OF WORK HAS
ONLY BEGUN.
"Friendshlp 10 a very good thing.
Intimacy is very enlightening thing.
But friendship may end with senti-
ment. A new thing that has hap
pened Is that we have translated our
common principles and our common
purposes into a common plan. When
we part, we are not going 20 part
with a finished work, but with a work
one portion OF which is finished and
tho other pof Ion OF which iB only
begun.
"We have finished the formulation
OF the peace, but we have begun q
plan Of cooperation which believs
will broaden and strengthen a. the
years 90 by so that this grip OF the
hand that we have taken now will
need TO be relaxed We have bean
and shall continue to be comrades.
We shall continue to be co-workers
in tasks which, because they are
common. will weave out OF our senti-
ments common conception OF duty
and a common conception OF the
rights OF men OF every race and OF
every CLINE. II II he true that that
has been accomplished II is n very

think I shall realize that have been
present at one OF the most vital
things that has happened in the his
tory OF nations, Nations have formed
contracts with each other before, but
they never have formed partnerships

associated themselves permanently.
