THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
85.A
July 6, 1945
Dear Ed:
I have allotted $377,500 from the President's
Emergency Fund to the Department of State to cover
your salary at the rate which you have been receiving
and the salaries and expenses of your staff.
I have been so pressed with matters which must be
attended to prior to my departure that I have not been
able to work out with you and the Secretary of State
the details of your work with the Preparatory Commission.
However, your chief task while I shall be away will be
in connection with the presentation of the Charter to
the Senate. I am sure that there will be full coopera-
X 85-N
tion between you and the State Department in this, and
when I get back we can settle the details of the Prepara-
tory Commission work.
I shall always be available by telephone or cable
if you need me, and wish you every success in this
vitally important work.
Sincerely yours,
(Sgd) HARRY S. TRUMAN
