Foreign Sicretnry Balfout warmly expressed thanks for the kindness and sympathy with which the British war mission has been re ceived in this country, declared what the United States has accomplished during the forty days since it enter ed the war most remarkable, and said he would carry back to the allies across the water his belief that with as little delay as human Imperfec tions allow the full and decisive weight of America would be thrown into the (druggie for democracy. The message was delivered to the Washington correspondents gathered at the National Press Club to hear the last Bpeech of the British statesman's visit. It was spoken with evident feeling. "Of those who say the war prepa rations of the United States have pro ceeded slowly. Mr. Balfour said, they "know very little of the actual way In which public life Is and must be carried on in free countries." "I think what has been accomplish ed In these forty days most remark able," he said. "It Is quite true that the executive government has been delayed by the fact that certain meas ures placed before congress took time to pass, some of them have not yet passed. But who is it that supposes that representative assemblies are going to make great and new depar tures in public policy solely at the waving of a wand?" He added that he felt confluent congress would give the President the great powers necessary to suc cessful conduct of the war. In expressing the mission's grati tude for the reception given them, the foreign minister spoke with re gret of their inability to visit many section and voiced the hope that it might be done at a later and happier time. To the correspondents them selves and to the American Press generally, he paid a tribute for their accuracy and patriotic principles. mind Is solely dependent on you, do not hide behind petticoats or children. 10.
