Summary
Not proper for America to solicit donations for any internal purpose from other nations. An independent nation now. The national and state governments should aid the development of education in America. It might even become fashionable to become a donor to such an enterprise. If W. comes to Paris, Jay will do everything to make it agreeable for him.
