Confidential.
My dear Mr. Ambassador:
Thank you for your letter of yesterday quoting a statement from General Foch about intervention in Russia. I was very anxious to get a direct expression from General Foch about this perplexing matter. I am sorry that he does not explicitly say whether he thinks we would be justified in sending troops from this country to Russia if there were involved in doing so a subtraction of that number of men from those whom we could send to France. If he has expressed any opinion along these lines, I would be very much obliged to you if you would let me know of it.

Cordially and sincerely yours,

Woodrow Wilson


Mr. J. J. Jusserand,
Ambassador of France,
Washington, DC
