I
I tried to get in touch with you before leaving Washington
and the Air Force but was unable to do so. My conscience has
bothered me about the Committee which I chaired and I felt that I
should try to arrange some disposition for its chairmanship.
In November, when I went on terminal leave, I requested
General Erskine to designate another Defense Prisoner Officer who
could step in and replace me on the Committee. I am not sure that
this has been done. Therefore, I feel it important now that the
Army member, Lt. Colonel John Hagood, be designated as Chairman
of our sub-group.
We have completed the draft report but some polishing is
required before it can be submitted to the full Committee. It may
very well be that some minor changes should be made and I feel quite
sure that Hagood can pursue this action to its completion at an
early date.
I should like to express my appreciation for the opportunity
of knowing and working with you. This has been a most interesting
task in which we have been engaged but one for which I fear that I
have not allowed sufficient time. I hope that you will call upon
me if there is any service I can perform in the completion of this
work or in any other task.
Sincerely yours,
JLM:pbs
