Dear Tom:
Thanks for your letter received this morning. I am glad indeed to learn that your plans have been definitely arranged for the summer's work at Middlebury. Good luck to you!
I am going to enclose a few notations from a recent letter received from your father in answer to my letter to him in which I took occasion to express my views about the possible dangers involved in a too long stay in America. Evidently he took the suggestion with very good grace, though I am afraid that I have not been able to alter his earlier opinions to any great extent, at least.
I am perfectly willing to write to Mr. Stimson at Washington if you still feel that you would like a job of the kind suggested, though I haven't the remotest idea that Stimson can put me in touch with such a job. I only thought that there might be such a chance and that the chance would be worth taking. On the other hand, was it not your intention when we discussed the proposition to finish out the undergraduate year at Yale first? That at least was the impression that I carried away from our interview, though possible wrongly.
With every best wish for the summer, believe me
Ever sincerely yours,
