You first submitted your plans TO me
in the summer of 1917. and before the
end OF that year you had n number Of
huts in operation In the training area
OF the First Division and a group of de-
voted men and women who laid the
foundation for the affectionate regard in
which the workers OF your organization
have been held by the American soldiers
The outstanding features or the work
OF the Salvation Army have been its dis
position to push its activities as far as
poss BILE to the front and the trained and
experienced character of it's workers
whose one thought was the well being of
the soldiers they came to serve
While the maintenance of those
standards has necessarily kept your
work within narrow bounds as compared
to some of the other welfare agencies II
has resulted In a degree of excellenc.
and self-sacrfce in the work performed
which has been second to none.

tinent OF Europe in planning for its fu

opinion I found universal among them

In relation to the so-called Peace Con-
ference is unsatisfactory Some charac-
terized II as a failure. some as a farce
all denounced the failure to make peace
while discussing theories of the future
relations OF the nations
The existing situation was attributed
the the personal idiosyncracies OF Presi-
dent Wilson. Among the Americans the
oiSnion was freely expressed that he
ought 10 return home and let Europe
settle its own questions. All nationals
ties seemed to agree that the situatio
was growing steadily worse throughout
the world and soon would be intolerable
All agreed that on the Presidents
first arrival in France he was generally
received as the embodiment OF the saliva
ton OF civilization. and that now Europe
was divided into three categories in her
estimate OF hm-those who were puz-
zled. those who were angry and those
who despaired. I did not hear the Presi-
dents course OF action approved BY a
single person.
The people who seemed to he the most
bitter about the situation were Ameri-
can army officers. Meanwhile the gen.
erai impression throughout Europe APP
pears TO be that owing to the situation
which has been created, the war will
have TO be fought again in twenty years

appears to prevail that President Wilson
