2245. Your 9245.1 For Secretary of the Navy. QUOTE. Please accept my best thanks for your kind message. I consider that much mutual benefit has accrued from my conferences with Mr. Roosevelt,2 and I hope when Mr. Roosevelt returns here from France that we shall have further opportunities to exchange views to the good of the two Navies. I assure you that we greatly appreciate Mr. Roosevelts visit and hope that in the near future you also may be able to come over – Eric Geddes. UNQUOTE. 19202. 2245.
