Dear Foster: I have made one or two notes on your talk.1 As a whole, the treatment is both accurate and timely. My only major suggestion was that we do see some value in giving military aid to numbers of nations, and I have suggested that somewhere a sentence should point this out. Your text, as it now stands, would seem to imply that our agreements with other nations have only political value.2
I am delighted that you are calling attention to the economic phase of the cold war. I shall say no more about it here; I wrote a long note to you yesterday on the matter--one that you might consider a bit dreary and a mere rehash.3
With warm regard, As ever
