122. Letter 8 from McConaughy to Johnson1
This has been a hectic morning with all efforts concentrated on getting out a reply to your 571 in time for a possible further exchange with you before tomorrow’s meeting. The pouch is closing now, so I won’t be able to put anything substantive in this letter. I just want you to know that the pouch channel is still open and that we are working pretty long hours, seven days a week on the Geneva problems. It is a pity that I can not put full time on Geneva. It is physically impossible to run the office and devote proper time and reflection to your problems.
We hope to establish a semi-weekly pouch service to Geneva so that if all goes well you will receive a letter from me a few days hence.
Sincerely
