Dear Allen:
Enclosed is copy of letter which I have just
received from one of my former secretaries, which may
be of some interest to you.
We enjoyed our drink with you last Wednesday
evening very much, and hope you will be able to drop
in at the Macy's Sunday afternoon.
Faithfully,
(Enclosure)

[Letterhead of
January 18th.
Dear Eustace:
It is so sweet of you to renew the "Atlantic"
subscription for me each year: I enjoy reading it and
also enjoy getting a reminder of you each month, not
that I need a reminder;
Last week one morning I was just settling down at
the radio to a short-wave rebroadcast of John Foster
Dullest New York speech when the familiar pattern of
Russian jamming blotted out everything but a word now and
then. Can't something be done about that sort of thing?
It happens all the time... there will be fifteen minutes of
"Show Business" with every word crystal-clear, presumably
because the Soviets have no objection to the world knowing
whether or not Marilyn Monroe wears underwear... then when
the 15-minute news period comes on, the old rat-tat-tat-whee
starts up lasting only until a sports broadcaster or other
non-political subject is on the air. If you ever nowadays
have access to Allen Dulles' ear, could I send on the
suggestion that the American Missionaries broadcasting
station at Quito, Ecuador might stand investigation? This
is on the air 24 hours a 'day, in many languages, and just
recently they have built an even more powerful station than
they previously had, with many of their hymn-singing routines
coinciding as to time and wave-length with USA news or
propaganda: where do they get the money for that powerful
transmitter? I may be all wrong, but would like to be
assured that I am.
We are coming to New York the middle of March for
just a few days before going west, and I hope I can catch you
on the phone if nothing more.
Sincerely,
/s/
