Commerce Secretary John W. Snyder (SOF) “I want to extend to you visitors from London & Ottawa a very cordial welcome, because I feel that on this occasion in an atmosphere of friendly & constructive conversation & discussions that we can find some ground on which to work out the problems that are facing us today, not only in the United Kingdom, Canada & the United States but in the world.” 08:17:54 Ernest Bevin SOF: “I want to thank you Mr. Snyder for the very hearty welcome you have given us to Washington. We have come on a great mission as you have said to join with our friends from Canada & yourselves to make one more contribution in the solution of the world’s problems. These problems are the inevitable aftermath of two world wars. We have to be patient, we have to toil hard, & we have to work away until we are quite sure we have laid the correct foundation for the future peace of the world. We have to harmonize all our political actions, our finance & economic actions so at least when we hand over we can say we’ve made the world safer for the children that come after us.” Economics; Diplomats; Post-WWII; Post-WW2;
