Dr. Gómez Ruiz stated that he plans to sail for
Venezuela May 11 and wished to thank me for the many
courtesies which he had received while in this country.
He also wished to present me with a gold medal commem-
orating the transfer of the statue of Bolívar from
Central Park to the Avenue of the Americas in New York
City.
I examined the medal and commented on the excellent
workmanship. Dr. Gómez Ruiz translated the inscription
on the reverse and commented that the medal was the
first of its kind to be struck in Venezuela. I thanked
Dr. Gómez Ruiz for his courtesy, and asked him to convey
by best wishes and those of Mrs. Acheson to Ambassador
and Mrs. Armour.
I then commented that the extension of the trade
agreements act has been reported out by the Finance
Committee of the Senate and is scheduled for debate
immediately following two other items on the Senate's
agenda. I expressed the hope that final action would
be taken soon and pointed out that the bill as revised
by the Senate Finance Committee is much more favorable
than the one which passed the House.
After the conversation was concluded, photographs
were taken in the diplomatic reception room.
