... From 9 to 9:50 a.m. * Attended the regular First Presidency's meeting. We considered a letter from Elder John A. Widtsoe regarding the work of translating the temple ceremonies into foreign languages.17 The Brethren felt that the Translating Committee, together with the Temple Committee, should meet with the First Presidency when consideration might be given to all questions where there is any doubt as to the adequacy of the translation. The Committee will meet with the Presidency on Monday, March 10, at 10:30 a.m. [David O. McKay diary, Mar. 6, 1952]
