File No. 763.72/9024
The French Ambassador ( Jusserand) to the Counselor for the Department of State ( Polk)
My Dear Counselor: A continuation of the telegram I sent you a moment ago has reached me since. It proposes that, besides the statement in my previous note, it be declared by the Allied Powers to the Rumanian Government, that all that may be done in the invaded territories will be considered by us as null and void; that an energetic military action will be maintained on all our battle fronts, and that all that may be possible will be tried to smooth over the difficulties beween Rumania and the Maximalists.
Believe me [etc.]
