Matt Connelly D.A.
Mr. Secretary
I have checked the matter of Mr. Leon Jauhaux seeing the
President with Assistant Secretary Sargeant. He believes that
if the President were to receive Jauhaux, even though the
latter did not raise anything in connection with "Fighting
Democracy" the Communist-front press in Europe would be
bound to play up the call and some stature would thereby be
given to the movement and Jauhaux's part in it. Consequently,
he agrees with Mr. Bonbright and Mr. Horowitz (the labor a.d-
viser in the office of European Regional Affairs, who has
handled our relations with the AF of L Cnnvention) that the
President not receive Jauhaux.
It is suggested that you inform the White House that we
believe the President is "too busy" to receive Jauhaux but
that perhaps Secretary of Labor Tobin would be willing to
see him. Our people think that it would be perfectly appro-
priate for the Secretary of Labor to have conversations with
Jauhaux.
