Hand in New York\nand told him that the panel which would review the John Carter\nVincent case is now complete and that the White House would be\nreleasing this information to the press at approximately 6:30 p.m.\nJudge Hand asked me the names of the other panel members and in-\ndicated that he did not know Howland Shaw nor Edwin C. Wilson.\nJudge Hand said that he desired to receive on Monday copies\nof all the necessary documentation. He said that he had read\napproximately half of the testimony before the Loyalty Review\nBoard when he was in Washington last week, but that he desired\nto go over it all again and that he would have to read all the pro-\nceedings before the Departmental Review Board.\nHe then asked me how to get in touch with Mr. McCloy in New\nYork. I told him that I thought Mr. McCloy was at the Hotel Pierre\nbut that I would get Mr. McCloy's telephone number and address\nto him on Monday. This has been taken care of.\nJudge Hand then asked me when Mr. James Grafton Rogers was\nplanning to come East and where the panel would meet. He said\nhe had no information on this subject and that he thought that all\nmembers of the panel should be informed by the Department as\nto the physical arrangements contemplated to bring the panel to-\ngether. I said that I would ask the appropriate people in the De-\npartment to get this information to him on Monday. I added that\nit was my understanding that Mr. Rogers was planning to come\nto New York from Colorado on appreximately January 11 or 12.\nJudge Hand then said that he was particularly concerned regarding\nthe record of proceedings before the Legislative Commission and\nwanted to know whether this record had been admitted as evidence\nbefore the Loyalty Review Board and/or the Departmental Review\nBoard. He said that he thought it had not been before the Departmental\nBoard but that he considered this a most important point and hoped\nthat the appropriate persons in the State Department could give him\nprecise\nE.0. 10501"
