AUGUST 2

     A quiet morning spent in writing

letters was followed by driving into

New York with Mother to meet Joanie, who

had half a day off.  We drove on over

to Brooklyn for lunch at Michel’s

and then sat in Prospect Park for

awhile.  Afterwards we went back to

the hospital – sat around on the roof,

and the like.  A very restful day;

though I keep dreading my ordeal

tomorrow.

     A four page letter from Bill

Brennan was amusingly interesting. –

his life in Manila must be

something!

     The Big Three (Truman, Stalin and

Atlee) Conference is ended, with the

decisions revealed.  It looks as

though Russia got the most and the

U.S. the least, of the bargain. – As usual.
