CO SUMMARY Washington, D. C. June 28, 1945 9:47am DR. REICHMAN to JACK NASON (Assistant to Attorney WILLIAM YOUNGMAN) asking if there was any news "from the great world. Our friend is on his way, you know." JACK said he was aware of that and said that things were very quiet and that BILL YOUNGMAN would be back in town tomorrow. REICHMAN said he hesi- tated to ask but a "fellow told me yesterday that the ATC is going to fly or is already flying from PARIS via PRAGUE to WARSAW. That's of very great interest to me, you know because I may have to take a flying visit out there." He asked if the establishment of the route was a fact. JACK said he would find out and let him know. O.K. 10.20am CORCORAN to BEN COHEN. The following conversation took place: BC--Hello! TC--The cat has swallowed the canary! BC--Uh, ugh!

When did you get back (from New York City)? TC--I just got back. I was just wondering if it isn't possible to heave the LULU thing out of the State Department today. We've only got two days. BC--Ugh, well, what can you do? TC--You have relations with OSCAR, don't you? BC--Why, I haven't seen him since he got back. TC--Why don't you call him and ask him what he has done on the thing and when he thinks he can get something done! BC--Well, what does he tell the fellow he's in touch with? TC--He tells the fellow he's in touch with that he's arranging to have this memorandum writter which will clear the thing for once and for all at the state Department. Maybe the thing to do is to do nothing for three days, I under- stand BC--Why don't you have NASON CACK NASON in CORCORAN'S office ?) press OSCAR, I mean
