Belgians Welcome President With All Their Heart
President Wilson arrived in Belgium after a war scarred border journey and began a packed second day by driving to Charleroi with King Albert to view German destruction in the mines. He planned a luncheon at the American legation and a first public speech before the Belgian chamber of deputies, plus a courtesy call on Cardinal Mercier at Mechlin. The Belgian Labor Party sent a message to Wilson rejecting violence and urging a definite peace that secures labor sovereignty.
