record. According to my memory, you were yourself so painstakingly
on the job throughout that period that I should be greatly distressed
if you were victimized now by ignorant or malicious rumors. It has
been my feeling that the best way to avoid such erroneous findings as 
you evidently feared was to meet with the Board and give them the true 
facts. I hope that it worked.
 
 
Faithfully yours,
 
 
Henry L. Stimson
 
   
 
Secretary of War.
 
 
The President,
 
The White House;
