The Secretary of State to the Minister in Sweden (Sterling)
Washington, October 28,
1939—4 p.m.
71. Your 168, October 27, 6 p.m. I have discussed the substance of your telegram with the President who feels that with his message [Page 983] to President Kalinin of October 11 and his later message to the King of Sweden at the time of the Stockholm Conference he has taken all steps that he usefully could in relation to the current Finnish-Russian negotiations. Please inform Sandler expressing the President’s appreciation for this new evidence of a desire on Sweden’s part to cooperate with us wherever practicable.
