“ Coming a long time after the visits of the French, English and Russian missions the official mission of little Serbia has received little attention outside of the governmental circles. America should feel honored by the presence of these men. They represent a nation, small in numbers but great in soul, a nation which has brought more sacrifices in the cause of patriotism and freedom than France, a nation that suffered from the barbarism of the Huns more terribly than even Belgium. The members of the mission are men distinguished in the diplomatic and military service of their country. ”

“ The Serbian government as the spokesman of the entire Jugoslav nation must and will insist on a thorough solution of the problem of Austria; no half-way measures—such as satisfying the Poles and the Italians, possibly throwing a sop to Roumania and leaving the Jugoslavs and the Czechoslovaks in the lurch. If in the peace conference Bohemia should not have a representative of its own, Bohemians may feel assured that the Serbian representative will defend their interests. ”
