Writes to Waldo in New York, who was possibly a newspaper reporter, to tell him that "It would not be worth your while to see me about daily dispatches." He concludes by thanking Waldo "for the information about England," noting (in accord with the non-interventionist views of the Republican Party) that "We are paying too much attention to Europe." Written on Coolidge's personal stationary.
