The Chargé in France (Whitehouse) to the Secretary of State

[Paraphrase]

265. Briand’s Chief of Cabinet informs me that Briand wishes very much to make a statement on July 4 about proposed pact. He believes it a good psychological occasion. Briand would greatly appreciate it if you would convey to him an expression of your views upon the draft which he submitted as he will make no statement not in entire accord with you.
