W Balfour, head Of the British
arms conference delegation. to-
aight issued the following Christ
mas message to the American peo-
Pile:
I welcome the opportunity
which has been granted me of
sending Christmas greetings to
my American friends, known and
unknown.
If this be the season which above
all others suggests thoughts Of
peace on earth and good will
toward men, surely there are no
nations between whom that peace
should be more secure and that
good will more ardent than the
two great peoples Of English
speech. Such has always been
my faith: and never did it seem
nearer complete realization than
at a moment when, under Ameri-
can leadership. so much is being
done toward diminishing arma-
ments and removing causes OF
international offense.
A Christmastide SO spent should
be the surest prelude to happy
