Havre, Oct. 17. Baron Moncheur,
head of the Belgian mission to the
United States and former Belgian min

Associated Press today to express his
thanks to the American people for
the hospitalitv extended to the mission
"I thought I knew the United States
well," said the baron. "I was minister
at Washington for eight years and
learned and admired the business-like
methods and efficiency of Americans,
But it was a revelation to see a great,
free, proud, wealthy nation bending all
its energies towards the single goal
of crushing Prussian militarism. For
getful of party rivalries, the people of
the United States, as one man. enterea
the fray resolved to make the world
safe for democracy.'
"It is no small comfort to realize
that the plight of Belgium was more
than incidental In bringing the great
est nation of the new world to the side
of the allies and justice. I came away
from America with the feeling that I
had witnessed the welding of a great
nation, the advent of right over force
and the determination of free men to
fifht for the heritage of liberty left by
their fathers who had acquired it at
the price of their blood.
"I was still under the spell of the
conversations I had had with your
great president one of the greatest
statesmen of modern and all times. As
I listened to the expression of his views
or the future destinies of the world I
was proud that Belgium could have in
spired such a sentiment in the bosom
of the first citizen of the greatest
country of modern times, and to him
and to the people of the United States
I wish to say "Thank you.' "
