...Minister John Flournoy Montgomery looked at the lush trees of Andrássy Utca, wondered whether their leaves would have turned before he saw them again. In Cairo, U. S. Envoy Bert Fish, in Warsaw, U. S. Envoy John Cudahy, in Riga, U. S. Envoy John Van A. Macmurray ticked off on their fingers the days to their departures.
