Text
My dear Mr. Secretary
I must frankly say that I am in entire sympathy with the claims of Luxemburg to have its independence safeguarded and assured, but I dare say that it would not be wise to give a definite assurance to that effect just at this stage of the proceedings, and therefore I beg that you will ask the American Chargé at the Hague to make in my behalf very courteous acknowledgement of this message, and say that I have asked him to say that I shall have every disposition to regard the interests of Luxemburg at every opportunity that I have in the most friendly way.
Cordially and sincerely yours,
Woodrow Wilson
Hon. Robert Lansing,
Secretary of State.
