May 24 and 25, 1951.
CONGRESSIONAL TELEPHONE CALLS
On May 24 the Secretary telephoned Senator George
to express appreciation and congratulations for his
successful efforts on the Reciprocal trade bill, and
he telephoned Congressmen Richards and Vorys for their
work on the Indian Grain bill.
On May 25 the Secretary attempted to reach Con-
gressman Durham of North Carolina, who had left
Washington. A letter of a preciation should be drafted
for him. He also telephoned the Speaker to tell him
what an excellent success he had had on the Indian Grain
bill. During the course of conversation the Speaker
said he was puzzled by the great reversal that had
taken place on this proposal. When it was first intro-
duced, it appeared that everyone was for it, and yet it
had encountered rough going. The Speaker speculated
that this may be due to worry on the part of the Congress
that this is the beginning of a series of such requests,
that the Congres men think probably Israel will be next,
with others to follow.
