793.94 Conference/254: Telegram
The Chairman of the American Delegation (Davis) to the Secretary of State
[Received November 16—noon.]
38. Your 64, November 15, 9 p.m. I regret that certain despatches from here indicated that the American delegation was charged with drafting during this week’s recess a resolution defining the terms of adjournment. This is not true and I hope that the despatches from [Page 194] here last night corrected such a false impression. I fully realized the implications that might result from our being the only principal power remaining here this week and that it was of the utmost importance that Eden and Delbos return to Brussels in time to collaborate and to share equally in the responsibility for preparing and introducing the final resolution. Eden and Delbos likewise appreciated this and accordingly both have agreed to be back Friday night. It was at first contemplated that the next meeting would be on Saturday but realizing that we would require at least 2 days for consultation before submitting a draft to the Conference, Eden and Delbos agreed with me that it would be better to reconvene Monday afternoon.
