Excerpt from Proceedings of the First Industrial Conference: Called by the President, October 6 to 23, 1919 The conference was called to order by Hon. William B. Wilson. Secretary of Labor, temporary chairman, with Mr. Rowland B. Mahany acting as temporary secretary. Secretary Wilson. The conference will be in order. This beautiful and spacious assembly hall has been placed at our disposal by the governing board of the Pan American Union, and I know that I voice your sentiments when I express to the governing board my appreciation of the great courtesy they have shown in placing this room at our disposal. It has been the invariable practice since the building was erected that whenever any body of men assembled here that was not a pan-American body a welcome would be extended on behalf of the governing board by the Director General of the Pan American Union. Following that practice, I have the honor of presenting to you the director general, Mr. John Barrett. [Applause.] Mr. Barrett. Mr. Secretary, ladies, and gentlemen, I am not performing this duty because.it is a pleasure to me, but in order that I may express to you, so to speak, the feeling of the Pan American Union on this occasion. In my capacity as its executive officer I bid you welcome to this noble building and its stately hall of Americas. When the President of the United States intimated that he would be pleased if the industrial conference could be assembled in this inspiring environment, it was a real pleasure for the Pan American Union to give its consent, although meetings are rarely held within its walls that do not have a direct international or pan-American bearing. The Pan American Union, gentlemen, is the official international organization of the 21 American Republics, the United States and its 20 sister Latin-American Nations, devoted to the development and conservation of friendship and intercourse, commerce and trade, peace and good will among them all.

Excerpt from Report of the Proceedings of the International Free Trade Conference, London, October, 1920 In conclusion, we have to thank those who so kindly helped us in entertaining the foreign visitors to the Con ference. To their kindness it is largely due that our foreign friends seem to have enjoyed their visit. Lord and Lady Pentland gave the proceedings an admirable start by entertaining all the members at their house in London. The very possibility of holding such a Confer ence, especially at such a time of international strain, serves to show the value of the Free Trade idea in bringing the peoples of the earth into more friendly relationship and realising the ideal of the Cobden Club, goodwill and peace among the nations.
