The Ambassador in the Soviet Union (Steinhardt) to the Secretary of State
Moscow, March 8,

253. Department’s 150, March 7, 9 p.m. It occurs to me that an invitation to the Finnish delegates to stay with me at Spaso House79 during their sojourn in Moscow might hold out distinct advantages. It may be however that they have already made other arrangements in which event instructions to them from Helsinki would be necessary. I am endeavoring to obtain an immediate appointment with Molotov in conformity with the Department’s above-numbered telegram.
