Bernhard von Bülow, the German Minister for Foreign Affairs, has spoken with Ambassador to Germany Charlemagne Tower again. He asked Tower to relay to Secretary of State Root that although previously there had been objections to the nomination of David Jayne Hill as new ambassador, the government never considered them to have sufficient grounds to refuse to receive him as an ambassador. All such objections have been formally withdrawn, and Hill will be welcomed in Berlin if President Roosevelt nominates him.
