OCR Page 1 of 2THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
July 16, 1945.
Dear Mamma and Mary,
Arrived in Berlin yesterday
afternoon about three 0' clock and was met by all the
Foreign Ministers and high ranking officials of Great
Britain and Russia and a special contingent of American
soldiers whom I had to inspect. We then came to a
beautiful house on a lake in Potsdam, which formerly
belonged to the head of the movie colony. It is said
that he has been sent back to Russia - for what purpose
I don't know.
I have a very pleasant visit with the
Prime Minister of England this morning and I am
expecting a visit from Marshal Stalin either this afternoon
or tomorrow. I hope I will have an opportunity more in
detail later but I want to get this off to you so as to
get it in the pouch that is to leave here this afternoon.
If you will address your letters to the
White House with instructions that they be forwarded on
to me, I will get them promptly.
Lots of love to you both.
Hany.
