My dear Creel
Thank you for your letter of yesterday. I dare say that I shall attempt some statement to correct the misapprehension apparently existing in Russia, but it is the opinion of the Secretary of State, and I dare say he is right, that I should communicate the statement direct to our Ambassador in Petrograd and let him make it public there. I will, of course, furnish you with a copy with the suggestion that it be withheld from publication until the date of its probable arrival in Petrograd, or until after it has been acknowledged by Mr. Francis.
Cordially and sincerely yours,
Woodrow Wilson
Mr. George Creel
Committee on Public Information.
