Text
My dear Mr. President:
I enclose an important dispatch from Berne, giving the substance of an interview between Doctor Herron and two prominent Catholics. I first thought of sending you a digest in order to save your time, but I thought you would probably prefer to read Doctor Herron’s report without any editing by me.
Yours faithfully,
Frank L. Polk
