Secretary Symington telephoned the Secretary this afternoon and referred to a matter which had been discussed at Cabinet yesterday - the development of manganese production. Mr. Symington went into some detail on this question as the result of a query made by Mr. Acheson and Mr. Harriman.
The Secretary asked if he might send Mr. Willard Thorp over to into the whole story. Mr. Symington agreed but said he was going to be out of town tomorrow but Monday would be all right for a meeting.
Will you please see that Mr. Thorp follows up on this.
