"NATIONAL AND of
June 17 145
Went down the River to day on the Potomac to discuss plan, issues and de-
cisions. Took Charlie Ross, straight thinker, honest man, who tells me the truth
so I understand what he means; Matt Connelly, shrewd Irishman, who raises up the
chips and shows me the bugs, honest, fair, "diplomatic" with me; Judge Fred Vin-
son, straight shooter, knows Congress and how they think, a man to trust; Judge
Rosenman, one of the ablest in Washington, keen mind, a lucid pen, a loyal Roose-
velt man and an equally loyal Truman man; Steve Early, a keen observer, political
and otherwise, has acted as my hatchet man, absolutely loyal and trustworthy, same
can be said as about Tosenmano
We discussed public relati ons in Germany, Italy, France, Holland, Belgium,
England and Russia. Food, Fuel, Transportation and what to do about it. Japanese
War and the reations with China, Russia, and Britain with regard to it; Supreme
Commander and what to do with Mr. Prima Donna, Brass Hat, Five Star MacArthur.
He's worse than the Cabots and the Lodges - they at least talked with one another
before th ey told God what to do. Mac tell's God ri ght off. It is a very great
pity we have to have stuffed shirts like that in key positions. I don't see why
in Hell Roosevelt didn't order Wainwright home and let MacArthur be a martyr.
