Ronald McVickar【1】 of Northwest Airlines came to tell me about the services of his line: particularly the new polar flights from N.Y. to Anchorage, 7 hours.
R. C. Chen 【陳長桐] told me that a lawyer in Washington told him that the State Department issued U.S. Foreign Relations, China, 1943 out of pressure from Fulbright, whose purpose was to cut down C. 【蔣中正] in the estimation of U.S. public opinion, in preparation for some change in U.S. policy.
Called on Amb. Jose Antonio Mayobre【2】 of Venezuela, who asked many questions on land reform.
Amb. Laking of New Zealand returned my call.
