Now that Sir Herbert Emerson has left Washington  
after a series of discussions dealing with relations   
between the Inter-Governmental Committee and the War Refugee   
Board, I want to express my personal thanks to you for   
originating and implementing the idea that Sir Herbert and I   
get together on our common problems. As you know, the discussions   
were most harmonious, complete agreement was reached as to the   
relations between the two agencies, and definite steps were taken   
              to push forward specific plans.               
 
                 Thanks for the assistance.                 
 
                   With personal regards,                   
 
                    (Signed) J. W. PEHLE
