My dear Mr. Secretary
I think our list is now complete, namely: Mr. Elihu Root,Mr. Charles R. Crane,Dr. John R. Mott,Mr. Cyrus H. McCormick,Mr. S. R. Bertron,Mr. James Duncan as the representative (of labor,Mr. Charles Edward Russell.
I have only just learned of the willingness of Mr. Russell to serve and am sending him a note today to learn the earliest hour at which he would be ready to leave. I think it would be wise now to give out the names of the Commissioners and supply the Press with as full information as they desire about the several members. I am enclosing the account of Mr. Russell from Who's Who.
Faithfully yours,
Hon. Robert Lansing,
Secretary of State.
