London -- 1:45 pm April 26. Miss Jane Addams. S.S. Noordam Ramsgate

The British authorities have completely suspended traffic with Holland for the present. There are no ships leaving this kingdom for Dutch ports and I greatly regret that is beyond my power to aid you in this matter. Even American diplomatic officers may not pass. I should be obliged if you would communicate this to your fellow passengers particularly to M Z Doty & Mary Heaton Vorse who have telegraphed me similar request.

American Ambassador
London
