The Under Secretary of State (Welles) to the American Member of the Inter-American Neutrality Committee (Fenwick)
Washington, May 17, 1940.
My Dear Professor Fenwick: 1 have received your letter of May 6 in which you inform me concerning recent discussions in the Neutrality Committee with regard to the subject of the censorship of postal correspondence.
While I believe that my telegram of May 10th to you on this subject is an adequate statement of the Department’s position, I want you to know that I am personally very appreciative of the way in which you have kept us informed of the progress of your discussions.
Sincerely yours,
Sumner Welles
