Sir H. Parry Robinson declared that Americana were never so unpopular la Continental Europe and so little popular In England aa they were today. He added There are three chief reasons for this unpopularity. First. Europe feels that the United States has not carried out their hopea, which tha visit of President Wilson to Europe promised.

When President Wilson arrived In Europe It was believed he would set the world In order. That hope haa not been fulfilled. The President. It la believed, did his best to carry out his promises. In England your unpopularity Is largely due to the Irish agitation In the United State, I know that that la being caused by a very email group of Americana.

Then you are beastly rich. I remarked an example of -that when a taxi-driver pulled up nit trousers and showed me his socks, saying Those socks cost me $3.23 a pair and they are not worth 11.50.'

Geographically she Is Germany's neighbor. Historically she has suffered repeated Invasion by Germany. France now desires to change this state of affairs. She wishes to be safeguarded afralnst Invasion." Dr. lyenaga referred to the laws discriminating against Japanese subjects and the Siberian problem.

He asserted that most of the attacks against Japan were made for political reasons, but that, unfortunately, the Japanese people were not versed in American party manoeuvres and misunderstood America's attitude. Mr. Noel declared that moat of the criticism directed against the United States was due to our provincialism and lack of International contact. He asserted that we were lamentably Ignorant of tha history, and problems of the Latin-American countrlea. To the uninformed only la the United States merely a land of dollar chasers." he declared.

Several of the other speakers said that one reason for America's unpopularity abroad was the tendency toward a misunderstanding of the newspaper reports which were cabled back and forth.
