S/S
Mr. Harriman telephoned the Secretary this morning about
Mrs. Helen Ogden Reid's interest in having General Draper speak
before the New York Herald-Tribune Forum on October 20.
Mr. Harriman said that Mrs. Reid had spoken with him about
this matter and that if General Draper felt very strongly that
he wanted to do this, he saw no reason why it wouldn't be all
räght. Mr. Harriman added that if it were his own choice, he
would not be interested. Mr. Harriman told Mrs. Reid he thought
she should get in touch with General Draper directly. However,
he wanted to discuss the matter with Mr. Acheson to find out if
the Secretary thought it advisable to "steer General Draper off
it"
Mr. Acheson said that Mr. Perkins had mentioned that there
was a possibility of General Draper's returning here in early
October in connection with the NATO annual review, in which
case he would not think General Draper would care to make a
second trip back here later in the month with all the work he had
to do. The Secretary said that he really had no objection to
General Draper's accepting the invitation.
Mr. Harriman concluded by saying that he would call
General Draper about the invitation.
