Scope and content:

Hench doubts that he will be able to attend the Reed Memorial Association meeting, but sends suggestions regarding Association business for his colleagues to consider. He recommends that Blossom Reed continue to receive Emilie Lawrence Reed's monthly pension after the latter's death. Hench informs Siler that the Cuban government has abandoned plans to preserve Camp Lazear and refused Hench's funds to temporarily protect Building No. 1. He suggests that the Association approach contacts in the U.S. War or Defense Departments to see if diplomatic or military channels might open the way for temporary preservation of the building.
