President Harding to the Under Secretary of State (Fletcher)

My Dear Secretary Fletcher: This is a very tardy acknowledgment of yours of November 16th20 relating to the proposed commission to negotiate with the Canadian Government in the matter of pulpwood export from that country to the United States. Inasmuch as we can allege no discrimination against the United States apparently there is no ground for insisting upon a conference between commissions representing the United States and the government of Canada. I doubt very much if there is anything further to do concerning the matter. However, I have advised Senator Underwood, author of the resolution, concerning the situation, and if he has any further suggestion to make I shall be glad to bring it to the attention of the department.

Very truly yours,

Warren G. Harding
