The Acting Secretary of State to the Chairman of the American Delegation (Hull)

152. Your 133, July 14. Norman Davis has raised the point that, inasmuch as the Disarmament Conference76 is scheduled to meet on October 16, it would be unfortunate to have the Economic Conference reconvene about October 1, since this would necessitate both international conferences being held simultaneously. While the President is not inclined to take any position in this matter, he desires me to call it to your attention.
