Messrs. Veniselos, Pashitch, Benes, Nubar, and Sokolow to President Wilson
Permit us on the eve of your return to America and in the name of the small nations to express to you the profound impression we have received of your sincerity, disinterestedness and good-will, as shown in your utterances and in your unremitting labors for a peace which shall be enduring because founded on justice.
The services which you have rendered to this generation and to posterity cannot be adequately measured until time has brought them into their true perspective, but none can attest so truly as we the sympathy and solicitude you have manifested to struggling nationalities lifting us up from despondency to hope and dispelling the apprehensions and misgivings which have afflicted us in the past.
That our peoples look to the future with confidence is, to a large extent, a tribute to your leadership and work and we beg that you will carry home to the Great American Republic whose disinterestedness, efficiency and altruism you so well applied to stricken Europe, our grateful acknowledgements.
- E. K. Veniselos
- Nik P. Pashitch
- Dr. Edouard Benes
- Boghos Nubar
