Abstract: McCormack references his talk with Walter on Monday, stating that he has just received a letter which he would have wanted to look over anyway, but Walter's call "quickly settled the question for me." He also mentions that "Genl Kennedy" [Attorney General Robert Kennedy, served in this office from 1961-1964] has received word from Ridgell that everything is okay, and extends to Walter the best wishes for the holiday season. Congressman Walter served in World War II and as a Representative from Pennsylvania in the seventy-third and fifteen succeeding Congresses, serving from 1933 until his death May 31, 1963. Walter also acted as chairman of the Committee on Un-American Activities.
