Return to Peool Harbor quart file September 18, 1945 Dear Mr. Carter: Replying to yours of the seventeenth regarding the Pearl Harbor matter, I know that your connection was very secret and that it should be kept that way but, I am of the opinion, if the smear campaign really starts on the President, you ought to get in touch with Senator Barkley. Sincerely yours, s TRUNNE CITY "NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND THE HARRY S. TRUMAN RECORDS are SERVICE" Mr. John Franklin Carter 1210 National Press Building Washington 4, D. C.
