A Quote by J. Reuben Clark
We are met today in a general conference. Sometimes, I hear, the people feel, some of them, that perhaps we are not quite as "peppy" as we ought to be. But this is not a Church convention. This is a general conference where we meet for general counsel and advice. It is a place to which we come for the results of the reflective operations of our minds.

Welles and I differed, however, in our interpretation of the results of the Munich Conference, he being optimistic, I skeptical.
