The Ambassador in Great Britain (Kellogg) to the Secretary of State
[Received October 10—9:10 a.m.]
413. My 410, October 9, 5[3] p.m.52 It was impossible for me to arrange a meeting with the Prime Minister owing to the political situation. However Crowe has withdrawn his note and says it was sent under a misunderstanding. He has sent a new note, substituting the word “representative” wherever the word “observer” appears in the text cabled you, so that we are not limited as to our representative.
Have just seen Logan’s telegram of October 6 to Department.52 Am still of the opinion that while we should not of course mix up in matters purely between the Allied countries, if they are going to discuss the divisions in the future of annuities, we should be represented. Repeated to Logan.
