Dear Bill:
I appreciated very much your first-hand report on the
Benne tt tragedy and also the copies of the remarks made by
Ambassador Henderson and yourself at the memorial service in
x1658
Tehran. I passed the whole file along to the President.
As you know, finding a man to fill Dr. Bennett's shoes
is most difficult. Dr. Bennett not only had the mind but the
x20-W
heart for the work in which he was engaged. That work happened
to be just about the most important ork bei ng done in the world
today.
The President was personally grieved as well as stunned
by the loss of the head of this great program. Dr. Bennett, as
a person, delighted him. They talked the same language and they
both had the same concept of Point Four. But even with the loss
of Dr. Bennett, Point Four is bound to go forward because such a
x192-A
great idea cannot die with a man.

We all are looking forward to seeing you later this
x PP73
month. I am sad to report to you that the President and Miss
Truman find it impossible to attend the (ress Club Father and
Daughter Dinner. I know this will be a°di sappointment to you and
marry others, but It cannot be avoided. You still nust come back
and see us anyway.
All the Shorts wish you and yours a great year in Iran.
You are taking part in one of the great adventures of all time.
Cordially yours,
for
JOSEPH SHORT
Secretary to the President
