HST-64 THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON February 2, 14 cam 1948 Dear Mrs. Roosevelt: I appreciated very much your letter of January twenty- ninth. General Marshall and I are attempting to work out a plan for the enforcement of the mandate of the United Nations. I discussed the matter with Franklin, Jr. the other day and I sincerely hope that we can arrive at the right solution. Your statements on Great Britain are as correct as they can be. Britain's role in the Near East and Britain's policy with regard to Russia has not changed in a hundred years. Disraeli might just as well be Prime Minister these days. I understand all that and I am trying to meet it as best I can. Sincerely yours Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt Val-Kill Cottages Hyde Park, Dutchess County New York
