Elliman\nAmerican National Red Cross\nAs soon as the article is completed and revised and has undergone final\ntyping, it will be sent to one of the leading literary agents in New York for\ncomment and if he considers it saleable in its finished form from there on it\nwill be up to him to place it. However, he may suggest revision, editing and\ncutting in length. He will also make the selection as to illustrations from\nMiss Keil's snapshots which I will select and send on. I have already consulted\nhim regarding this article.\nI will not have to bother you any more because I think that this letter\ncovers all the questions concerning which I would like some information. The\nbound copy of \"The Hatchet\" gives me a wealth of information as to the Presi-\ndential trip December 4, 1918, supplying a complete list of the passengers and\nnames of the ships that convoyed the SS George Washington and other data. Miss\nKeil's snapshots include several of the King and Queen of Belgium which are clear\nenough for submission, also some autographed pictures of President Wilson and\nmany other photographs which can be used. Most of her Russian pictures, however,\nare not good enough for reproduction in a magazine but I think I will be able to\nselect a few of them which might pass.\nThanking you again and again and with best regards, I am\nVery sincerely yours,\nWCM/KC\nwilling\nW.C. Missimer"
