INTER-DIVISIONAL POLICY MEETINGS

It is expected that Mr. David Johnson will be in Ottawa for four or five days later in the present month at which time it is planned to hold a series of Inter-Divisional Meetings designed to review conflicts in Canadian policies which were evident at the Sixth Session of the General Assembly of the United Nations. At present it is not yet possible to fix a definite date for these meetings but the present indications are that they will be held either in the week beginning March 17 or during the week beginning March 24.

2. Meanwhile, I think you will be interested in reading the attached correspondence which was precipitated by a memorandum of January 1138 prepared by Mr. Reid, and which was sent to Mr. Johnson on the same date. Mr. Johnson's reply dated January 2339 is attached, together with a reply dated January 2440 from Mr. Chipman, to whom Mr. Reid also sent a copy of his memorandum. Attached is also a further letter to Mr. Johnson from Mr. Reid dated February 641 and a memorandum dated February 9' addressed to this Division by Mr. Reid.

3. I think you will find a number of the points raised in this correspondence of interest to you. We shall keep in touch with you regarding the definite date for these meetings and you will in due course receive a programme and timetable concerning them. Meanwhile, you may wish to attain [retain] the attached correspondence for reference.

S. MORLEY SCOTT
