Marshall explains his resignation I have been asked to explain why I have submitted my resignation. For one reason, it was bound to be quite a long time before I was in condition to resume my duties. And the state of affairs in the world today are too critical to have a long interval without a Secretary of State fully occupied with the job.

Which I might say is probably my final appearance in such matters.
