the belief, based upon such infofma-
tion as we had been able to obtain from

willing to admit. and that no adequate

I'm confidence that il was our belief the
time was near at hand when America
would enter the war. In such event
sud we must prepare for the fullest
in asure Of cooperation with the Brit
i~h navy. / commented on the fact that
n.therto our information concerning the
allied plans and methods Of naval war
t,re had been limited that we knew
httl. or nothing Of what they were do

/ informed him as 10 the communica

In the course of the conversation
that followed I recalled the speech that
h, had made some years before at a
Iarquet in the GuildhaI. London In
that speech Admiral Sims had said:

British empire is seriously Inenaced by

you may count upon every man. every
dollar. every drop Of blood Of your
kindred across the sea"

sion not because of your GuildhaH

I added that he had been selected be
cause he had enjoyed intimate asso-
cations with the British officers. and
II was to be expected that they would
the more readily repose confidence in
him and disclose their secrets. and that,
after we entered the war, their CO
operation would be heartily given.

We would find It necessary To assume
the role of helligCrcnt. The President
was anxious that in such event the
navy should hc ready TO do It's part
without a moments delay. In every

The British and French. naturally. had
