Dear Baroness,
I have to inform you that the deputies of Germany have replied,
accepting all our propositions and promising to visit us. Only they
wish the Conference to be postponed till the beginning of November.
So then all countries have heeded the appeal with the exception of the
parliaments of Vienna and Budapest. These must be labored with, and
you can do that better than I, with the assistance of a friend in the
Reichsrat.
I am sending you the copy of a letter which I have addressed to the
Germans; it may serve you as a pattern of what you will want to write
to your friends, of course with such changes as are requisite.
Finally, I beg you to give me the names of the presiding officers of
both houses in Vienna and Budapest. I am sending you under separate
cover the constitution of our Committee, and later, as soon as it is
printed, you will receive the full list of our Parliamentary
Committee,—more than three hundred members.
Best regards to your husband, etc.
