the situation was in such shape that it was necessary to have Sharp assume his duties, since he was now the regularly constituted Ambassador. He will notify the French Government of his purpose to recall Herrick and then see what happens. We left on the four o'clock train for New York. New York, November 9, 1914. Norman Hapgood, Charles R. Crane, and Walter S. Rogers called. We dis- cussed the personel of the Trades Commission. I was glad their minds ran along with the President's in one or two cases which will make it pleasing to them. They thought the Catholic question had entered into this election and they were certain it had defeated Sullivan in Illinois. General Wood took lunch with me. He was pleased with what I told him of my talks with the President and Secretary Garrison. After reaching New York I began the coordination of the Belgian Relief Com- mittees as the President desired. The Belgian Minister, Robert de Forrest, Green of the Rockefeller <del/> Foundation, and S. R. Bertron came to confer about it. I told de Forrest I would endeavor to get Bernstorff's consent in order to facil- itate matters. November 10, 1914. Wallace saw Bernstorff and he acted very finely regarding Belgian Relief, agree- ing to acquiesce in whatever we desired. In the morning Cass Gilbert and some others came in. Later Dudley Malone, Mr. Bertron and Will Irwin, the writer, called. Malone is bitterly against McAdoo and Tumulty. I tried to show him that he and McAdoo stood for the same things. It was to no purpose, for McAdoo seems bent upon irritating Malone to a degree that makes cordial feeling between them impossible. Irwin was very interesting telling <del/> about his experiences in the war zone.
