trying to help him and not trying to get the support of the Independent: that
I was perfectly willing for the Independent to criticize the President whenever
they thought he was wrong, and I knew they would sustain him when they thought
he was right.
July 27, 1917.
The day has not been a busy one. Dr. Short of the League to Enforce
Peace came from Boston to seek advice concerning pending matters in that organ-
ization. He also wished advice as to the proposed meeting of the League at
Washington in the Autumn and the scope it should cover.
July 28, 1917.
We dined last night with Mr. and Mrs. F. L. Higginson Jr. The other
guest was Ellery Sedgwick.
Gordon and Janet came from Washington today, Janet to remain the balance
of the summer and Gordon to return tomorrow night. I hear only good reports of
Gordon's work from Washington. Janet, too, has had her share of admiration and
attention.
Mrs. Borden Harriman called in the afternoon and gave much gossip of Wash-
ington and New York-- some of it hardly fit to print.
July 29, 1917.
Major Henry Higginson was my most prominent caller. He came to talk about
the war and the submarine menace, and I let him do so for an hour or more.
I have a letter from McAdoo saying he will be here Wednesday. I also
have a letter from Frank Cobb about the challenge of THE WORLD to the TAGEBLATT.
My reply is a part of the record.
July 30, 1917.
The cable I sent Wiseman on the 28th is a part of the record. Sir Chas.
