550.S/1193: Telegram

The Chairman of the American Delegation (Hull) to the Acting Secretary of State

169. For the President. Deeply grateful for your personal telegram. MacDonald delighted with your message to him which message I read to full Conference meeting this morning and it was received with general applause. It came at a most [opportune?] time and will accomplish much good. It was as forceful and sound as it was timely.

Mrs. Hull and I accept with thanks invitation to Hyde Park when we land. Our niece Mrs. Paul Hays is travelling with us.
