325-B October 12, 1946 My dear Lord Justice: I deeply appreciate your letter of October 1, 1946. I am taking the liberty of sending copies of it to the appro-- priate United States authorities. The remarkable progress of the great trial to its conclusion has been due in no small part, I know, to your own gifts as President of the International Military Tribunal. I have been pleased that your personal contribution has been # widely acclaimed by the press in this country. The tasks of the Tribunal have been long and arduous, and I wish to express to you and your colleagues my appreciation of the faithful services which you have rendered to the strengthening of inter- national law and justice. Very sincerely yours, (Sgd) HARRY S. TRUMAN GOVERNMENT The Right Honorable x Lord Justice Lawrence, D.S.O., Lord Justice of the Court of Appeal, London, England. x48
