I can't express adequately all that I feel.

Great gratitude and great hope are in my heart.

I hope now that some great and abiding good to the world will yet be wrought out of all this welter of evil.

Recent events in Russia, too, stimulate this hope: they are a good in themselves, but not the power for good in this war that a great and firmly established free country like the United States can be.

The President's address and the way it has been followed up in your country is a splendid instance of great action finely inspired.
