Edward M. House Papers

Colonel E. M. House to President Wilson

Paris, June 21, 1919.

Dear Governor: Here is a cable which Lansing has prepared for your approval.56

The great essential now is to have the Treaty ratified with the Covenant, and I believe that Lansing in his quiet way could influence many Senators. Bliss and White could keep things going here and I would always be nearby in case of need.

Affectionately yours,
