Peace and relief talks with Van Dyke at White House
Henry Van Dyke met President Wilson to discuss Europe and the Belgian relief effort. He cautioned no peace proposals yet, cited biblical language on peace, urged aid be sent through the American Commission in Belgium, and noted Holland and neutrals seek influence to end the war. Sir Gilbert Parker reported relief plans to Cardinal Gibbons as Belgian refugees suffer.
