With the attacks of the American First and Ninth armies across the Roer, the long-awaited western-front offensive has got off to a promising start. The Inter-American Conference in Mexico entered its second week with the encouraging prospect of general agreement on several main issues. The need of an international organization that would ban aggression and use force to stop it was stressed by almost every delegate, showing how far the Latin American countries have moved from the days when the isolationist point of view, dominant in North America, found a loud echo in the rest of the hemisphere.
