Secretary Marshall, at that tim favored making a eech in the assembly of the United Nat urging Moscow to remove the curtain and permit free inter- course between the people of Rus- sia and the outside It w suggested that after Spee was made, translations in the Rus- sian language could be dropped behind the iron curtain—by wea- ther balloons if necessary For some reason thi never made.
