Kenneth Hopper writes Charles thanking him for the loan of documents. He informs him that he has returned everything except the Osaka Managerial Controls Research Association letter of March 18th, 1950 and the Christmas card from Mr. Katō. Hopper says that he wants to hold on to these documents since he would like to visit Matsushita (U. S. A.) in the near future and show its executives the two items. He shares that while the young Japanese executives express appreciation for the American assistance, it is almost as if they have been able to half persuade themselves that the Japanese invented all this management themselves.
