As President, speaking for the United States, I am more interested in adherence to such a tribunal in the best form attainable than I am concerned about the triumph of Presidential insistence.
I have thus far made no allusion to the hungering of humanity for new assurances that the world may be equally blessed. Peace ought to be the supreme blessing to all mankind.
Our own concern is not with the beginning. Our interest is in the end to be attained.
The surpassing accomplishments are progressively made, and I know that the soul of America will light the way to a gratifying victory.
