The Chief of the American Delegation ( Wilson ) to the Secretary of State

8. On termination of debate on exceptions under article 6, Colijn plans to call for general discussion on ratification and then to appoint a subcommittee to work out a definite plan to be submitted to Conference, He will probably request each state to declare when convention may be submitted to legislative body for approval. Am I authorized to state that convention and protocol with new annex, if you authorize me to sign, will be submitted to the Senate in the next session?
