894. Continuous Cabinet meetings and meetings of Cabinet committees and overwhelming military problems absorb this Government beyond any precedent. Foreign Office is prompt but finds it hard to get prompt information from some other departments about several subjects that I have presented. In spite of this enormous pressure and overwork I think I shall have greater promptness hereafter.
The withdrawal of the Declaration of London has most admirable effect all around.
