From Bernard Shaw. [letterhead]

I am afraid I can do nothing; for though I am doubtless persona grata in some official quarters I am very much the reverse in others; and my interference might do more harm than good. You have done all that can be done; and as there can be no objection except the purely numerical one on the American side I presume it will lapse when your lady's turn comes. I am sorry that this is all I can say.
