The Secretary of State to the Acting Chairman of the American Delegation (Gibson)

188. Since talking with you over the telephone I have again studied the resolution as a whole with its most recent modifications and wish to congratulate you on the elements of strength and the direct relationship to the President’s plan which you have successfully retained. I realize fully that you have been up against a determined effort to whittle away the effectiveness of the President’s plan and do not wish you to feel from some criticisms of detail I may have made over the telephone this morning that I underestimate the real measure of success you have had.
