Foreign News: A Letter

The New York Times: “President Coolidge will soon receive a letter from the reactionary German National Association of House Owners of all Germany reading in part:

” ‘It cannot have escaped Your Excellency’s attention from the perusal of published official documents, that no War blame or War guilt rests on Germany, but that the real criminals were Poincaré, Clemenceau and the Grand Duke Nikolaievitch, who propagated the War lie throughout the world. We respectfully suggest that you proclaim publicly that the American people were lied to and duped by President Wilson and forced into a criminal war on the side of the criminals, that the Versailles Treaty, accordingly, is an instrument of chicanery and, therefore, null and void. And, professing this better, honest insight, it would be a fine thing if America were to waive all War indemnities against the German people, thereby doing honor to the sense of fair play and justice of the American peo-ple.'”

It was not known if President Coolidge received the letter.
