-3- Mass Meeting: The question arose as to the possibility of a mass meeting at Madison Square Garden, and Mr. Oram reported that he had been told there were no available dates within the next three months. The Chairman agreed to assist in trying to secure a date some time in January or February. Congressional Hearings: The Committee discussed the question of appearances before Congress, and it was agreed that this could be useful and it should be arranged at the appropriate time, in consultation with the Committee Chairmen and Government departments concerned. Additions to the Executive Committee and the National Council: It was agreed that Mrs. Wendell Willkie and Mr. William L. Clayton would be invited to become members of the Executive Committee, and the Committee discussed the possibility of adding other members from the South and Midwest, but no further names were agreed upon. The Executive Director and the Fund Campaign Director were also authorized to send additional invitations to business and civic leaders to join the National Council. Committee Publications: The Executive Director reported that the Washington Post sup- plement and the.reprint.of Mr. Stimson's article would soon be available for distribution, and that he thought one of the first additional things to be prepared should be a small pamphlet explaining the organization and purposes of the Committee. He also expressed the belief that a question and answer booklet and other popular material should be prepared as quickly as possible. The Committee agreed in general to this program.
