than so other nations throughout the
world. With Germany a fullfedged
member, and with the treaties Of Lo-

alone will the end of the World war
be fully realized, but that future strife
between nations in Europe will be
obviated. Senior Anciso of the Ar
gentina was present, sitting at the
desk which has been reserved for the
