werp and the sea, and the most profit
able business relations carried on with
other countries.
1--WE also venture to express the hope
that any difficulties existing between
Belgium and Holland, which latter coun-
try rendered very material, assistance to
the American colonies in their early
struggles f@ Independence. may be
| amicabiy adjusted
THE Belgian people have developed
new capacities for national solidarity as
well as personal sacrifice. Though
| bruised and scattered, they will rise
superior to their surroundings in the
building OF new End greater Belgium.
In this work the aid of the United
. States will be sought and will be freely
I and cheerfully given. There will be the
same manifestation of American genef-
| osity in connection with the reconstruc-
ton OF Belgium as characterized our
| action throughout the period of the war.
Our aid, OF course, will only be enlisted
u the extension of necessary credit and
| not in any projects of territorial
ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
The generally acknowledged thrift,
industry and dependability of the
Belgian workers are assets of incalcul-
| able value in the problems now con-
fronting the nation. The confident man
ner in which the Belgian people have
already entered upon the tasks of re-
| construction is the best index that Bel
GUM will achieve as triumphant a VIC
tory in peace as she did in war.
The Government Of Gelgium is in
strong hands, in the hands of those sub
jected to the hardest test and found
equal to the situation. 1 refer to that
peerless triumvirate, King Albert,
Queen Elizabeth and Cardinal MERCER
This soldier, woman and prelate, whose
| Judgments have been matured by the
wonderful deeds in which they bore SO
signal part, will manifest that same
able leadership in peace as in war.
ION behalf of our vast citizenship I
now take pleasure in presenting to your
MaJesties the freedom of city which
| bore upon its first shield the words
! New Belgium" a city whose history
| Fast and present has been one of whole
! hearted service in the cause of liberty
! and democracy, city proud of its
Americanism-the glorious city of New
| York"
