Blake reports that "German Divisions have been coming over the Elbe, surrendering to us rather than the Russians". He relates the state of law and order and finds his conscience tried over whether to take pity on Germans in need, only to feel it is thrown back at him. At other points in the letter, he scoffs at their ignorance over what has been going on, but recognizes how much they must rely on German expertise regardless of whether they might like to.

Blake asks again whether Martha can stay with the Russells before moving on to join him "if and when" she comes over.

Blake asks Peter to invite Martha Blake to come stay with them, if they are willing. She would endeavour to get a job with one of the American agencies so she would not be a strain on the Russell's limited food supply.

Blake is anxious to hear the results of the UK election. Following that he reflects on missing Roosevelt and feeling that Truman seems so small compared to him, but that he might be able to get material through that Roosevelt's opponents wouldn't have allowed.

He concludes the letter by reporting that the Germans are impressed with all the soldiers playing with the German children and thanks her for writing an article in the paper encouraging this to be allowed.
