The first of these will leave for Norway tomorrow. These ships will carry with them the gifts and good wishes of Americans of Wisconsin to the lands of their forefathersthe Scandinavian and the Low Countries. On the return trip. these friendship fleet boats are expected to bring back immigrants who might not otherwise have been able to come to our shores because of the terrific lack of passenger ship facilities. Later on this summer. it is possible that a friendship fleet boat may go to western Germany. from which come so many of our finest Wisconsin people. The whole State of Wisconsin is particularly a vast combination of foreign cultures and peoples blended into a new race of menthe American race.
