That hit the bull's-eye with perfect accuracy; and it has been accepted here as _the_ war aim and _the_ war condition.

So far as I can make out it is working in Germany toward peace with more effect than any other deliverance made by anybody.

And it steadied the already unshakable resolution here amazingly.

All the world, under this long strain, is more or less off the normal, and all my work--even routine work--is done with the profoundest secrecy: it has to be.
Our energetic war preparations call forth universal admiration and gratitude here on all sides and nerve up the British and hearten them more than I know how to explain.

There is an eager and even pathetic curiosity to hear all the details, to hear, in fact, anything about the United States; and what the British do not know about the United States would fill the British Museum.
