President Optimistic
In Addresses

DjRESIDENT HARDING gave voice
to his optimism concerning the con-
ference in two public addresses last
"wednesday. In converting the annual
meeting of the Red Cross he said:
81 hope with all my heart that much
of the big work which has been yours
in the past will never be asked Of you
again. 1t will be a wonderful thing
for me and for you to have lived in
a period when we have brought the
conscience of mankind into an under
standing where we shall have done
something tangible to prevent calling
upon you again for war service. And
like to say It to you, because know
whereof 1 speak. We are going to sue
coed beyond our fondest hopes; 1t is
getting to be so pleasing to be able. to
saw that things never done before we
can do now"
To a delegation representing vari-
Gus farm organizations the President
said:
'This conference will demonstrate
the wisdom of internationally coming
together-nations facing each other
and settling problems without resort
to arms"
