voyage to the United States. A num
ber of the soldiers who were members
of the guard at Paris White House

ried during their sojourn In Paris. ,
The regulations provided no means
for the brides .to .accompany their
husbands aboard the George Wash
ington and for a while it seemed they
might get left behind.. A tearful joint
dispatch from the brides to President
Wilson, however, led to the making cf
, arrangements for their accommoda

. no vrlties- of "the voyage, which so frr
has been in perfect weather and on a

press to you my conviction of the
truth of your generous message cn
cernlng the great ends which hce
been attained by the present peace
and the new ties which have been
created between your own great peo
ple and ours. We are on the eve of
realizing more than we could realize
thorn at 'the time, the real objects of
the great war.
"The free peoples of the world, uni
ted to defeat the enemies of liberty
and Justice, have through their repre
senatives wrought . out a plan by
which they may remain united In a
free partnership of intimate council
to promote the cause of Justice and
of freedom through the beneficient
processes of peace and the accords
of a liberal policy. It Is within the
. choice of thoughtful men and of every
nation to enrich the peace by their
counsel. I am happy to echo your
greetings at this momentous time of
renewed vision and confident hope."
Emoeror Yoshihito, of . Japan, in

tions is received with the greatest
gratification. It has been a privilege
o cooperate with the very aDie repre
sentatives of Japan in developing the
terms of peace which Inevitably in
volved the Interests of the wholo
world. I believe with your majesty
that the results achieved forecast a
new era in the world's history because
they give promise of a peace in which
justice will not be Imperiled by selfisn
initiative on the part of any single
nation.
"May I express my best wishes for
the security and happiness of your
people."

tion with your country taken such a
