Washington, D. C, May 19
- Dear Marian:
Following Secretary Douglas McKay's
speech to the American Public Power
association in Boston last Thursday night,
the McKays returned to New York and
enjoyed a couple of days vacation. "Won
derful Town" and "Can-Can" were the
shows they saw. A session at the third
dimensional "Cinerama" where they
were in the fifth row left them a bit
exhausted, but their first week-end of
vacation was still a pleasant change, they
report.
Another speech of the Secretary's last
week was at the District Bar Association
for Administrative Procedure. The inter
est of this group is In the work of the
federal departments and the Secretary's
presentation representing the thinking of
one department head was welcomed by
the Association members and given high
praise. He spoke also before the com
bined student bodies of the Industrial
Colleges of the Armed Forces and the
National War College at Fort McNatr.
