mination of Colonel White
Civil Service League Award
1. 1 met y4th Jean Couturier this afternoon. The essence of what
was a very pleasant 25 minutes with him is that the League does not seek
testimonials but is pleased to receive them if they are sincere and not
obvioly the result of an organized pressure campaign. There is no
therefore, in vW mind about the worth of a note from Mr. McCone
to Mortimer Caplin. I should think that to insure
they simply be advised that the nomination has been made and
provide the address of Mr. Caplin in care of the National Civil Service
League.
2. The actual selection system is quite complicated--made so by an
effort to insure full and objective consideration of the nominees. I have
attached a list of all those who will this year participate in at least a
first-round screening of the nominees. In addition, also listed the
Board of Directors who can also be addressed in that role. In reviewing
this list, I note in the group identified as "Washington fiends of the
Tate" the name Bryce H. Harlow, identified with Proctor and Gamble
Manufacturing Company. I assume this is the Bryce Harlow who is now on
the White House staff and may well now be personally known to the Director.
The key group of four till be the first three listed: Mortimer M. Carlin,
Bernard L. Gladieuc, and John J. Corson plus Jean Couturier himself. If
the Director would indicate those on the list to Yhhom he would like letters
prepared for his signature, we will start drafting. I should imagine,
however, that there are so which he would prefer to handle himself.
Attached also is a copy of the portfolio which was delivered today.
3. Jean indicated that he was pleased that we had resubmitted
Colonel White and, in reading the Director's forwarding letter and
scanning the summary statement, commented most favorably,
k. 1 need to pull together to give to Jean whatever we can get with-
out going to Colonel White personally on his membership in organizations
and societies, participation in civic activities or organizations, and
media through which publicity might be given should he be selected.
