Some time ago President Truman received from the President of Italy a first century Roman vase in Marble. This has been set up in the White House grounds. The President has a photograph in color of it. He wishes to send this photograph with a letter of thanks to the President of Italy.
The President will have the photograph wrapped and sent to us. We are to prepare a letter to the President of Italy. This should be done promptly as he will be leaving the end of the week. I have a recollection, which may be wrong, that a letter of thanks was drafted. At any rate, this should be investigated and liaison established with the White House about it.
