Following the Cabinet meeting on December 23, the Secretary spoke with the President about the request of Generalissimo Trujillo to call on the President. The Secretary advised the President that we believed it would be desirable for him to receive Trujillo briefly. The President agreed that he would do so and asked that the Department make arrangements through the usual channels following the holidays for the Generalissimo to call on him. He did not wish to even consider giving a luncheon.
