To Major James J. Winn December 16, 1941 [Washington, D.C.] Personal and Confidential Dear Jim: This is just a hasty note. Katherine has been worrying about Molly, of course, reading of Panama black-outs and thinking about the feeding of the baby.1 I merely want to tell you that if you think Molly and the baby should be gotten out of there, there is no problem here, only a possibly over enthusiastic welcome. Of course, once Molly is up here she will not be allowed to go back. Also, and most confidentially, I do not know when we will start the evacuation of dependents from Panama; as yet General Andrews has not made any recommendations. We are of course starting the evacuation from Hawaii. It is quite possible that such action may be taken in Panama, though this is not certain.2 I pass this all on for your own private information. Faithfully yours
