This memorandum draft tells Ambassador Reid to have Henry Charles Keith Petty-FitzMaurice Lansdowne show him the dispatch received from British Ambassador H. Mortimer Durand about Russia. Additionally, President Roosevelt has informed German Ambassador Hermann Speck von Sternburg he does not believe the United States could join a conference about Morocco, unless France acquiesced. Roosevelt also spoke with J. J. Jusserand, but does not want any publicity.
