Its purpose, "to create an enlightened public opinion on a sound foreign policy," is peculiarly interesting in these days, when few know just what our foreign policy is, many suspect that we have none. The list of speakers at the gathering,--Professor Hart, Secretary of War Baker, Senator La Fontaine of Belgium, and others,--is sufficient evidence that this year's conference will be decidedly worth while.
