The Peace Negotiations

CHAPTER XIX
5/49

That was never received.

The telegram, which was sent to Mr.Wilson, through the Department of State, was never answered.

It was not even acknowledged.

The consequence was that the version of the conversation given by Mr.Bullitt was the only one that up to the present time has been published.
The almost unavoidable conclusion from the President's silence is that he considered my explanation was insufficient to destroy or even to weaken materially the effect of Mr.Bullitt's account of what had taken place, and that the public would believe in spite of it that I was opposed to the Treaty and hostile to the League of Nations.

I am not disposed to blame the President for holding this opinion considering what had taken place at Paris.
