President. I should like to say a word of appreciation of a great project which the sponsors of the wellknown radio program Town Meeting of the Air have just completed. Their effort resulted in having leaders from a number of Asiatic countries flown to the United States. for the purpose of touring our country. participating in Town Hall programs. giving Americans information on the Asiatic situation. telling our folks how we are regarded in the Asiatic countries. and pointing out ways in which we can bring about greater understanding among the people of our country and the people in their countries. These friends from Asia traveled in all parts of our country. Some of them spent some time in South Dakota. visiting our farms. talking to our people. and observing Missouri River Dam developments.
