CONFIDENTIAL
My dear Baker:
There is nothing for it but to take the Italian Ambassador and his family. I agree with you that we are getting in deep, but the feeling between France and Italy is already so strained that I should not dare come to any other conclusion.
In haste,
Cordially and faithfully yours,
[Woodrow Wilson]
Hon. Newton D. Baker,
Secretary of War.
