RESTRIOTE
MEMORANDUM FOR MR. CONNELLY:
As a Spanish translator-interpreter for the Presi-
dent I suggest Guillermo A. Suro, head of our Translat-
ing Bureau in the State Department. Suro was born and
educated in Puerto Rico, is forty-one years old, and
widely experienced in oral and written translating at
international conferences. He has been with the Pan
American Union and the State Department for the past
twenty years, and his translations of speeches are said
to be sometimes better than the speeches themselves. I
can recommend him without hesitation for the job we have
in mind, but I shall say nothing to him about it unless
instructed to do so.
