致中华民国总统孙逸仙博士。
最尊敬的先生：
目前您的新中国百废待兴，而您正在专心准备复兴商业以及其他所有行业。在这种情况下，我相信以下提议和主张可能会对您产生深深的吸引力。首先，您的政府将被迫进入某些工商行业，因为它需要政府提供各种必要的设备、支持和一个良好的管理。这样，这些行业才能盈利。
您将修复和完善旧的铁路系统；您也将建造新的铁路和其他桥梁；您将需要建筑钢材和其他金属材料；您将需要设备来装备您的军队以及各级机构；您将需要供应政府办公系统各种类型的办公设施。当然，在您的新共和国建立过程中，您还需要其他的各种物资。毫无疑问，这些从国外进口的物资中，有一部分您会从美国进口。
为了确保这些美国货经济实用和运输效率高，您有必要在美国设立一个主管机构和一位经验丰富并且可靠的代表。
我相信我可以胜任此职位。对您的政府或其他政府感兴趣的商务很有价值。恕我直言，我有着相当丰富的商业事务的经验；我已在夏威夷檀香山的许多大型工厂和众多的批发公司之间做了多年的代理商，与他们有着多年的联系。
我目前在为奥连特东部和西部的工厂做代理商，已经到奥连特出差过几次；我对远东地区人们的商业需要有几分熟悉。我很熟悉我们国家制造业的盈利，相信我会为您谋取最大的利益以使您满意。当您在事业发展过程中遇到重要的难题，那时您可能会希望获取相关信息或想要在美国进行某些调查，以供参考，在这种情况下，如果您在美国有一位能够给予建议和这类信息的代表就会非常的方便。
此外，在这些商业事务中，您的代表必须要熟悉各种海关和海运文件、货运清单和发票的每一项规定和要求；当然也要知道运费和到您的国家最合适的运输路线。
我可以向您保证，我对这些问题都很在行。同时也希望说明，我几乎对美国的所有主要城市都很熟，并一直往返于这些城市之间；尤其对我们国家的制造中心特别熟悉。
关于这些问题，尊敬的总统先生，请允许我将这份参考名单随函提交：
W.P.富勒尔公司，油漆和石油制造商；
霍尔布鲁克·梅里尔和斯特森酒店，五金批发商；
J.A.发尔吉公司，香料批发行；
纽约绷带公司，生产医药橡胶制品；
亨特布鲁斯公司，水果包装公司；
以上均在旧金山。
何方先生，外货银行集团；
吉·安格斯先生， 戴维斯公司；
堪贝尔船长，内海航运公司经理；
休伊·麦金太尔先生，胡梅公司总裁；
弗雷得·沃尔德伦，商业俱乐部会长；
罗伯特·斯林格先生，夏威夷州司库；
W.R.卡斯特先生，律师；
以上均在檀香山。
这封信可以联系到我在马尼拉的地址，这个地址直到明年3月18日我回香港之前一直有效。如果您想直接的或间接通过代理与我商谈此事，在这期间您可以通过这个地址联系我。
