Mr. John Payne/ President
Dear Mr. Payne:
Thank you for your letter of August 4 with which
you returned the Saturday $ vening Post article along with
two other copies of the same article. It was certainly thought-
ful of you to obtain these extra copies for me, since the one I
loaned you was the only one still in my possession.
I enjoyed our talk and your very effective presen-
tation of the nature of your interest in possibly doing a series
based on the work of the Agency or its predecessor, the 0. S. S.
?o far I have not found a way to overcome the very serious
difficulties I see in such a series, particularly as related to
our work in the C. I. n' .. As I explained to you, I am of course
quite cognizant of the public relations angle of this matter
and I shall continue to study it.
