Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

This collection contains a handwritten letter, dated January 7, 1919, and sheet of music written by Geneva, Switzerland, professor Dr. R. Landesberger and addressed to President Woodrow Wilson. A typed transcript of the letter is also included. In the letter, Landesberger expresses his doubts about Wilson's proposed League of Nations. Instead of the proposed plan, he suggests that nations should adopt a "Referendum" which would require a majority of nations to approve any future conflicts between individual nations. This collection also includes a handwritten piece of music written by Landesberger and dedicated to President Wilson "as an hommage to his personality."
