ed, but | have TO remind you, Mr.. Sec
rotary, that no action could be taken
without me by the cabinet, and there
fore there could have been no dis
advantage in awaiting action with re-
gard to matters concerning which ac-
ton could not have been taken with
out me.
This affair." Mr.. Secretary, only
deepens feeling that was growing
upon me. While we were still In Paris
felt, and have felt Increasingly ever
since, that you accepted my guidance
and direction on question with regard
to which | had to instruct you only
with increasing reluctance, and since
struck by the number of matters in
which you have apparently tried to
f0restall my judgment by formulating
action and merely asking my approval
when it was impossible for me to form
an independent Judgment because
had not had an opportunity TO examine
the circumstances with any degree of
independence.
II, therefore, feel that | must
frankly take advantage of your kind
suggestion that If | should prefer to
have another conduct our foreign
affairs YOU are ready to relieve me
of any embarrassment by placing your
resignation In my hands, for | must
say that II would relieve me of EN-
barraSsment. Mr.. Secretary, the EN-
barrassment of feeling your reluctance
and divergence Of Judgment, if you
would give your present Office up, and
afford me an opportunity to select

luctance ! take advantage of your sug-
gestion. or that ! do SO with the kind

course is course of perfect candor,
where personal feeling is rs much as
