\ WAtfilMOVGN, D. c*, November 14th, 1941, Dear fx. Uorrison, During the few day's visit I have had In Washington, the Embassy dis- cussed with me couaunications that havo been roceived from undergraduate* and social workers offering their services to our country. One suggestion Is that they would be willing to be for.ied into u non-skilled section of the Civilian Technical Corps, to do such work as dock construction, and on this point I am, of course, writing to the Ministry of Labour, Alternatively, It is suggested that these students and social workers would like to ^ive their services to our Civilian Defonce work, and it has been suggested here that it might be possible to fit them into the scho ;e which Ur« Wlnant, the American Ambassador, is sponsoring in connection with the "Anglo-American Personnel £xchange scheme of 16 vueen Anne's Gate, London, V. 3. 1"# The Embassy here is arranging to let you have full par- ticulars through the Foreign Office, and will tell you exactly where the arran omenta stand at tho moment* It occurred to me that possibly a local authority, such ae Birmingham or :.anchestor, might be prepared to have such a group of young American social workers attached to them for the purpose of civilian defence during the war, and with, I understand, a view of helping with reconstruction after the war. I w*±te to you, knowing of your groat intorest in Anglo-American relations, und I think that the Emba3sy would be happy if eone definite offer could coue from our country as soon as possible. knowing that you have been to Amerlce many times, you will understand what a wonderful tiiae I am having. Yours ever, Herbert korriaon, Esq., Home Secretary and Minister of Home Security, Whitehall, London.
