Made by Wilson.

ident Wilson was as follows:
My Dear Mr.. President: 1t is with
sincere regret that have reached the
conclusion that should return to you
the commission of secretary OF state,
with which you honored me at the be-
ginning of your administration
Obedience to your sense OF duty and
actuated by the highest motives, you
have prepared for transmission to the
German government note in which |
cannot join without violating what
deem to be an obligation to my coun-
try and the issue involved is OF such
moment that to remain member of
the cabinet would be as unfair to you
as it would be to the cause which is
nearest my heart, namely, the preven-
tion of war.
/ therefore respectfully tender my
resignation, to take effect when the
note is sent, unless you prefer an
earlier hour. Alike desirous of reach
ing peaceful solution OF the problems
arising out of the use of submarines
against merchantmen, we find our
selves differing irreconcilably as to
the methods which should be EN-
ployed
1t falls to your lot to speak officially
for the nation; | consider it to be
none the less my duty to endeavor as
private citizen TO promote the end
which you have in view by means
which you do not feel at liberty to
use.
In severing the intimate and pleas
ant relations which have existed be-
tween US during the past two years,
permit me to acknowledge the pro
found satisfaction which it has given
me to be associated with you in the
important work which has come be-
fore the State Department and to
thank you for the courtesies extended.
With the heartiest good wishes for
your personal welfare and for the sue
cess OF your administration, | am. my
dear Mr.. President. very truly yours,

Presidents Letter to Secretary Bryan
The Presidents letter to Mr.. Bryan
was as follows:
My Dear Mr.. Bryan: l accept your
resignation only because you insist
upon its acceptance; and ] regret it
with much more deep regret, with a
feeling of personal sorrow. Our two
years of close association have been
very delightful to me- Our judgments
have accorded in practically every
matter of official duty and of public
policy until now; your support of the
work and purposes of the administra-
ton have been generous and loyal be-
yond praise, your devotion to the du-
ties of your great office and your
eagerness to take advantage of every
great opportunity for service it of
fered has been an example to the rest
of us; you have earned our affection
ate admiration and friendship. Even
now we are not separated in the OBJ
ject We seek, but only in the method
by which we seek 1t.
1t is for these reasons my feeling
about your retirement from the secre-
taryship of state goes so much deeper
than regret | sincerely deplore it.
Our objects are the same and we ought
to pursue them together. | yield to
your desire only because | must and
wish to bid you God speed in the part
ing. We shall continue to work for
the same causes even when we do not
work in. the same way. With affec-
tionate regard. sincerely yours.
