Q.
Bundy said he would be a little late.
Q. Oh, yes, that's right.
DA. Yesterday we were speculating as to whether in, mid 149 the criticisms of the Marshall
step to further the agreement between the Nationalists and the Communists had been a subject
wal
of criticism and I find among my press clippings here an editorial in the Common
Wheel
