The short fact is that Stans' visit to us came at the end of a long and unrewarding pilgrimage, and he was perhaps irked that he could not bludgeon out of a dependent administration concessions which he had been unable to negotiate from metropolitan countries. I may add that, although I myself aroused him to one unnecessarily testy reaction by quite mildly questioning some of his more dubious arguments when he came to see me, I have nevertheless since received from him an almost unctuously courteous letter of thanks, as has Cowperthwaite.
I have copied this letter to John Freeman
in Washington.
Yours ever
David
