BRITISH EMBASSY,
 
      WASHINCTON, D.C.
 
      
 
 
I have accordingly approached Dr. Aydelotte who tells me that 
      he will be delighted to act. I hope this will meet with your 
      approval. I enclose a provisional draft of what I propose to 
      say when conferring the degree. I shall be seeing Dr. Aydelotte 
      at the Oxford dinner in New York next week and will send you 
      as soon as possible a draft of the short speech, which he will 
      make.
