CO SUMMARY
9:37 AM
GEORGE BOWDEN, who is from Chicago and is staying at the Mayflower, to
CORCORAN. CORCORAN said he was isappointed about a great many things
that happened which he knew would happen. BOWDEN said that BARKLEY
slipped one over, and CORCORAN said that BARKLEY made it sort of a
personal payoff. for his disappointment in Chicago. CORCORAN said that
the liberals lost out everywhere because they couldn't agree on something
that could be done. CORCORAN said this means there will be appeals
from the N.L.R.B., the Wage and Hour Board, S.E.C., Power Commission,
and that every administrative agency has to run "that gauntlet" because
under the terms of the law the party losing has an option to go either
through this court or his local Circuit Court and now he'll go through
this court; and that "these goddamned labor fools have done that."
BOWDEN said, "And they didn't get anyone at all near them." BOWDEN
asked if CORCORAN had heard anything more on the Louisville situation.
CORCORAN said he had called (WARD) PERROTT yesterday about Louisville,
and that he'll try to get in touch with him again right now. BOWDEN
thanked CORCORAN for what he did "on that judgeship, and CORCORAN said
he was afraid of that thing; that the minute he heard (Judge) HASTIE
was in it he was scared. BOWDEN said that he knew that unless "they"
came out with an unqualified endorsement there wasn't a chance; that
the best he could get out of the national committee was neutralization,
but that he had to have somebody sponsoring and the C.I.O. in the first
instance said they would but that they didn't. CORCORAN said, "Labor
is like that." BOWDEN said he was glad to see GAEL (SULLIVAN, New
Second Assistant Postmaster) move in. CORCORAN asked how GAEL would
play with BOWDEN, and BOWDEN said he thinks he doesn't mean much one
way or the other to GAEL.
9:57 AM
DR. LUDWIG RAJCHMAN to CORCORAN. RAJCHMAN said that he sent to LEO
(CROWLEY) the memorandum which LEO asked for, and now he wonders what
should be his next step. CORCORAN said that LEO has a meeting of the
Bank (Export-Import Bank?) today. CORCORAN said to wait until the
pressure goes off at the end of the week and then call LEO on Saturday
and ask for an appointment to discuss it with him. CORCORAN said, "I
was talking with BILL (YOUNGMAN) about it the other night. I said
what you ought to do, I thought, was let me take this thing for you to
DEAN ACHESON'S law office--old man BURLING, whom I think is the smartest
then let SHAGGY work on it on the side. But what you want is
old ED BURLING." CORCORAN said he is going to see BURLING for breakfast
tomorrow morning and will talk to him about it then. He told RAJCHMAN
he should call LEO Saturday and make an appointment to discuss it with
him.
