My dear Mr. President:
 
    
 
 
I have just received a letter from the Apostolic Delegate of which I enclose a copy.  
Secretary Hull and I believe that I should reply along the lines set forth in the draft   
which I am also enclosing herewith.
 
    
 
 
 Will you let me know if this meets with your approval.
 
Believe me
 
Sincerely yours
 
Sumner Welles
 
 
The President,
 
The White House.
