Under Secretary Dean G. Acheson,
Department of State,
Washington, D. C.
Dear Dean:
Following up my letter to you with reference to the
United States Committee for the Care of European Children,
I am enclosing, for your information, a copy of a letter
received by the Committee from Miss Katharine Lenroot,
Chief of the Children's Bureau, and a copy of a cable
from Miss Lenroot to Mr. George Warren at the Embassy in
Paris.
In view of my statement to you in the memorandum which
accompanied my letter that we had only heard of small groups
of children who were available to come over here, I thought
you should be apprised of the opinions of persons on the
UNRRA staff working in the American zone in Europe.
If anything like the program mentioned by Miss Lenroot
is to be put into effect, it would be my view that there
should be a definitive determination of policy on this
whole question at the highest levels. We of the Committee
would, of course, be glad to come to Washington to support
such a program, if in your view intercession on our part
would be helpful.
If you desire to discuss this matter with me, I could
get down to Washington some time during the week of
December 3rd. I probably could not get there before that
time.
My best to you.
