President Wilson to the Secretary of State

My Dear Mr. Secretary: I am anxious to know whether our note to Japan about the “requests” she made of China has gone forward or not. The twelfth (Thursday of this week) is the day named in the despatches on which China must yield or ———? It would be well to have our note in Japan’s hands by that date.

Faithfully Yours,

W. W.
