Memorandum from John Hay

Memorandum from John Hay

German Emperor William II wants several representative American ecclesiastics to attend the inauguration of a new cathedral in Berlin on February 27. He asked that President Roosevelt nominate the delegates. Secretary of State Hay explained the American separation of church and state. Instead of referring the matter to Roosevelt, he suggested the German Embassy communicate with the leading American religious bodies. There is adequate time for Roosevelt to take up the matter if he so chooses.
