Washington, July 1,
1925—6 p.m.
Your June 26, 11 a.m. You should tactfully decline to sit on proposed commission of inquiry unless officially requested to do so by the British and French Consuls General and unless common foreign interests would be furthered by your participation in which case you should telegraph your views stating also the composition and defined objects of the commission and await further instructions.
