Colonel Harvey said: "I shall fail miserably to the grievous disapoint-
Samahni and Wachow ment of my President if I fail greatly to strengthen the bonds of mutual Haiphong friendship and helpfulness between the two great English-speaking nations. Icela testify of my own knowledge that the King and President see eye to eye. Our offer of a helping band is because it is in our own interest as well as in the interest of both. The President having put His hand to the plough is not one to turn back. He has declared that the United States must play a fall part in promoting world peace."
