Paris, Juno 30.?President Poin ^
rare Thursday night Rave a dinner to
President Wilson and all the dele- ^ ^
^ates to the peace conference. Mrs.
t ic
Wilson accompanied the president.*
"I thank you most sincerely for ^
the words that you have uttered."
President Wilson in responding to an
ro
address of M. Poincare said. "1 can
not pretend, sir. that the prospect of
going home is not a very delightful
one but I can say with the greatest ^
sincerity that the prospect of leaving
Prance is very painful to me.
"1 have received a peculiarly generous
welcome here, and it has been
pleasing for me to feel that that
welcome was intended not so much
for myself as for the people whom 11 n 1
1 ( I f
represent.
"1 foci that my stay horo, sir, has a"
enlightened both my heart and my av
mind. It has onahlcd mo personally
to see the evidence or the suffering '''
and sarritlces of France. It has en- 'n
ahled me to come into personal touch
with the leaders of the French peo- u'
pie and through the medium of intercourse
with them to understand 11
hotter. ,u
tht "Sometimes the work of the conWHMk
SO
once has seemed to go very slowly
fid. Sometimes it has seemed as In
it ?vre were unnecessary obstacles
te apreement; but as the weeks have
lengthened I have seemed to see the ^(1
profit that came out of that. Quick ' '
conclusions would not have produced "r
that intimnic knowledge of each other's
mind which I think has come
out of these daily conferences.
"The six months have been six
Oil
months which have woven new fibres
of connection between the hearts of 01
our people. And something mote u
than friendship and intimate sytnpa- '?
thy has come out of this intercourse.
"We have finished the formulation;,,.
,.t II... I.nt ..... I.rxrn.. n I 1
plan of co-operation which I believe
will broaden and strengthen ....
Wo shall continue to be co-workers h,
in tasks, which, because they arc
common, will weave out of our sentiments
a common conception of duty
and a common conception of the
rights of men of every race and of
every clime If it be true that that s'
has been accomplished, it is a very Kl
grea? thing. at
"As I go away from these scenes at
1 think 1 shall realize that I have Sr
been present at one of the most vital be
things that has happened in the his of
tory of nations. Nations have form al
ed contracts with each other before
but they never have formed part- lb
nerships. They have associated of
themselves temporarily, but they m
have never before associated them- st
selves permanently. la
"The wrong that was done in the
waging of this war was a great M
wrong, but it weakened the world to
a great moral necessity of seeing
that it was necessary that men should
band themselves together in order
that such a wrong should never be
perpetrated again.
'miiti'iy 111 iii'iii it uuinm null Mils
wrong oiico is not enough. Thorn
must follow tho warning to all othor ,.j.
nations that would do like things .
that thev in turn will ho vamiuishod j f),

honorable purpose
' You fan see, therefore, sjp. with
