February 19, 1915
Dear Miss Addams; --
I thank you for the information contained in your letter of February 19th which I have just received on my return from Washington.
I have recorded March 10th as the date for your address at Hunter College and have cancelled the record of the Syracuse engagement.
The meeting of the Executive Committee of the Endowment adjourned at seven P.M. Saturday evening and I sent you the following telegram: --
"Five thousand appropriated Trojan Women condition on emphasizing peace feature. Await letter for details."
The members of the Executive Committee are not in entire agreement on certain points covered by the program of the Woman's Peace Party and therefore the allotment of five thousand dollars was made to be expended under your personal direction.
On some later date convenient to you the Executive Committee would wish to have a report covering the main uses of the allotment and accompanied by an assembly of newspaper cuttings to show the effect that the production of the Trojan Women has had.
Will it be convenient for you that I arrange that a check for five thousand dollars payable to your order be sent to you from our Washington office? If so, this will, perhaps be the most convenient way of arranging the matter.
Sincerely yours,
