The Secretary of State to President Wilson

My Dear Mr. President: I have your comment upon the proposed reply of the German Government in the Lusitania case. With your views I entirely agree.

Yesterday I had an interview with Count von Bernstorff, of which I enclose a memorandum which was made immediately after I talked with him.97 You will perceive that I took very much the line of approach which you suggest in your letter.

Faithfully yours,

Robert Lansing
