Paris, November 30th, 1916.

Mr. J. G. Butler, Jr., Member of the Industrial Commission of France. Youngstown, Ohio.

Dear Sir:—

I acknowledge receipt of the interesting report that you have made on your return from France, and I trust that this voyage will have allowed you to learn to appreciate our fine country, and that the results of your visit will be good and fruitful for the exchange of our products with North America.

You need not thank us for the reception that we have given to the American delegation in France. It was our duty to receive heartily our American friends; it was for us a cherished duty to tighten again the bonds of cordiality which exist between the two countries.

Personally I myself have been very glad to be introduced to you.

Yours Very truly,

MONCURAND,
Senateur de la Seine.


Meurthe & Moselle,
Office of the Prefect.
Nancy, France, November 28th, 1916.
