Mr. Barry Bishop, Chief
American Republics Branch
Press Service 
United States Information Agency
Washington, D.C.

Dear Barry:

I received your letter (IPS/EA) and the attached clippings shortly after the death of Silliman.

Although the kids did not cable me, I received almost immediate news through Red Mosier and other mutual friends.

I certainly do remember Jack Schroeter, and request that you give him my best regards when you see him.

Thanking you for your thoughtfulness, and with warmest greetings, I remain,

Sincerely,

Elton R. Silliman
