Message of Baron Kato.
Baron Kato'a menage of greetings
caid: " .
"It gives the whole Japanese dele,
sation true pleasure to send a mcs
sage of greetings to the American
people at this unprecedented Christ
matide. It ., goes without saying
that unless a most genuine spirit of
peace moved the , nations that are
represented at Washington, no such
happy or such -quick achievements
would have been possible.
"As to the value of the agreements
that have already been reached .they
speak adequately for themselves.
Nothing that any delegate could say
would be of any use if the facts
were not sufficient evidence of the
ample agreement of the greater pow-
ers. J hose Jacts will sav to the
world in unchallengable terms
that it was in no vain pretense or
amity that the several countries sent
their representatives to WashinKton
m reply to the invitation ot l'resi'
dent Harding.
"We came, we listened, wc heeded
in a spirit of mutual sympathy and
mutual accommodation; all made
concessions to the viewpoints of the
others. And the result has been a
promise such as the world has nevef
known before of peace among these
greater nations for decades to .come
and let us hope, forever. .

oring to lay down a more solid basis
for the maintenance of peace in the

frkndlv relations between the peo

ance and on a more serene discussion
of their mutual intercuts.
"God granted to. the . American
people riches, strength and political
greatness. The American people
show that they can nobly use these
gifts for the welfare of the . entire
humanity. Italy fallows this benen
cial work with the greatest sympathy
and with the most resolute decision
of efficaciously collaborating in this
purpose. To the strong, gentle and
hospitable, oeonle ' of the United
States, I address mv warmest wishes
for their future and fir their best
and ever prosperous fortune.
Chinese Combine Greetings.
The three Chinese delegates in
their messase said:
"The coming of "Yuletide serves to
recall to the mind of the members of
the ' Chinese delegation,' the tirae
honorcd custom of observing the new
vear holiday in China, which is char
acterized by the spirit of peace and
good will, as it obtains at the Christ
mas time in the western countries.
Young and old gather 'together in
the home of the oldest living branch
of the family to celebrate the festiv
ity very much in 'thc. same -way that
Christmas is celebrated 'in he west'
em hnmpa. . v ".' ' .
"Three years ago at this time the
world was still;. witnessing, the 'clos
ing scene of .' the European ' struggle
that had disturbed the peace of the
fc'orld, but, today nine .powers,' most
of whom' were participants-1 in the
conflict, are gathering here iu Wash
ington to dp away with the causes of
war and to' lay" the foundation, of a
permanent peac. It is to be, sincere
ly i hqped-.that with ' the aqcompliph
me'nt of the conference "the.' expres
sion, -'Peace on .earths arid 'good wilt
towards, men, which'iS-' particularly
appropriate at .this festive time, will
hcitccforth -be - the guiding spirit
among the nations. ''. 'V ?'.'''':'..?'
.VI he Chinese' delegation takes the
opportunity to extend its most cor
dial1 greetings, to all the participating
members of the conference, to the
other -nations of "the 'world and par
ticularly to the. people of t'the United
States,- whose. hospitalitv the Chinese
delegation : is now enjoying with
much gratification. - .
. v ' Confidence. Necessary.
Tonkheer. ;lCaniebeck's greetings
were extended as follows: .' "
... "Uplifted by the Chnstmas spirit
above -the jlcvcl. of its, daily ...labors,
strugglin'g.humauity pauses to turn
its. "miiid to: thoueht. Scrutinizing
its .efforts' of. the ending period, it
to throw off:-the woes entailed by a.
destructive - war and wonders what
the' future holds m stoie
"Js.,. the .coming era. to be more
responsive, to, the .craving for relief;
is it;' to re-endow ; mankind -.'.with
former happiness , and . prosperity
The ..reply; rests- largely-, with the
a,nswer,fto this primary question:
- Is 'confidence to be restored, con
fidence that peaceful enjoyment of
the fruit of labor is assured, that the
best product of man s brain, his
growing mastery of nature's power
whose secrets he unveils, , shall not
serve- to his own destruction, con
fidence in good will among nations
and ' the,. fair; intentions ,of one's
neighbors?; , ' '.
Without such confidence at the
basis of international order there is
no concerted, no truly constructive
action no wholesome recovery of
presentiments. ?"It is the lofty task j
of the Washington conference to re-I
store this trust among the peoples
of the '"world by removing encum
brances from the avenues of their
friendly intercourse. If the confer
ence be successful as I trust it will
the outlook for the new year will
be greatly brightened and peace and
prosperity loom ahead. - j r i
May the -American nation with
whom the people of. the Netherlands
are united. in age-long friendship,
largely share in the blessings which
all hope will light : upon this earth
again." 's
