The Chief of the American Delegation (Wilson) to the Secretary of State

8. On termination of debate on exceptions under article 6, Colijn plans to call for general discussion on ratification and then to appoint a subcommittee to work out a definite plan to be submitted to Conference, He will probably request each state to declare when convention may be submitted to legislative body for approval. Am I authorized to state that convention and protocol with new annex, if you authorize me to sign, will be submitted to the Senate in the next session?
