Paris Peace Conf. 181.227/9b: Telegram
The Commission to Negotiate Peace to Colonel E. M. House
Paris, September 9, 1919.
2241. Confidential for House from Polk. Information in regard to your return to Paris is leaking out through British and French. Think the newspapermen have it, but not sure. Suggest it would be better to have a statement made rather than for the matter to leak out. Polk.
