The Secretary of State to the Chargé in the United Kingdom (Atherton)

70. Your 79, February 26, 7 p.m., and 81, February 28, 1 p.m. Do you believe that Eden had talked with Runciman on subject of my instruction 1130 of February 13 before Runciman made the speech reported in your 81? I am very anxious to have any information which might become available to you relating to this subject.
