Abstract
Description
Sorry Messersmith has not been well; has been "under the weather" also, but can expect no relief from any German "cure"; Messersmith's report on Oberländer-von Steuben business excellent; had arrived at same conclusion as Messersmith; von Steuben visitors to Germany this year did harm everywhere they went; Hoffman made two speeches which affronted every American present; Embassy sent report which may have some effect in Washington; said in brief speech that propaganda one of the errors of our times; Judge [Julius W.] Mack will tell Messersmith facts about situation; Mussolini's plans seem favorably regarded in Germany; doubts Mussolini will go through with plan and risk eclipsing himself, leaving only one Napoleon I in Europe.
