FOR THE PRESIDENT.
 
 
Congratulations on your masterly and unanswerable
address. I am sure the people of our country are with you. The McReynolds proposal to Congress is given front page publicity all over Germany. If your address receives similar publicity tomorrow the effect is going to be great in spite of all limitations of free speech and I believe the whole of Europe
is going to be deeply moved in the direction of peace. Shall cable official and semi-official reactions as soon as we are reasonably informed.
