No. No, we weren't. We dealt mainly with the few newspaper people who were reasonably willing to express themselves. And Mrs. Suzman and the likes of her, i.e. those who believed in a gradual transition of power to the blacks. She's a very courageous lady. As I think I said, we saw the Bishop. I'd met him before when we gave him an honorary degree at Harvard.
Do you remember anything he told you at that point?
It was more of a social. What they all told us is what they're still telling us, and that is that you can't get those Dutchmen to move. And that the English are nearly as bad.
Any other trips?
I think I've been most everywhere in the world.
You've written, I have your list in front of you and you've written down Eastern Europe.
Oh, that was rather adventurous trip that Marion, my wife, and I took with my daughter, since deceased, and with Marion's daughter whom you know.
