A MESSAGE FROM MR. PAUL ANSPACH
Mr. Anspach, re-elected president of the International Fencing Federation, sends the following statement from Brussels:
"At the outset of the new commission that the Congress of Berlin has conferred upon me, it is extremely pleasing to me to present to the fencers of the whole world the wish that I have for the realization of all their hopes and to express to them, anew, my very deep gratitude for the testimony of sympathy and confidence that they have never ceased to express to me. Upon my part, I assure them of all my devotion and of the realization of the task that they have imposed upon me. I promise them that I will consecrate all my efforts to the task. I heartily wish that the relations of comradeship which unite the fencers of all countries and which constitute the charm of our relations may develop more and more and that the F.I.E. will continue to be a large family closely and completely united by the realization of our common ideal."
The address was sent to the President of the Amateur Fencers League of America, Mr. Harold Van Buskirk, and was translated for us by our Foreign Correspondent, Mr. George Breed.
