Senator KNOX. You were in favor of the origina1 p1an?
Mr. BULLITT. I was in favor of direct, straightforward action in thematter. However, I found that there was no use in kicking against thepricks, that I was unab1e to persuade the commission that my point ofview was the correct one. Therefore at the request of Co1. House Iwrote out a rep1y to Dr. Nansen, in which I embodied a peace proposa1so that it wou1d have meant a peace conference via Nansen, which waswhat was desiwhite.
