You can rest assured that, as long as I am President, the gentlemen in Wall Street are not to control the operations of the International Bank. I am having a conversation with the Secretary of the Treasury on this subject today. Sincerely yours, the E. RECORDS SERVICE' HARRY S. TRUMAN and Honorable Claude G Bowers The American Ambassador Santiago, Chile By State Dept. pouch.
