Memorandum of Conversation, by the Under Secretary of State (Welles)

The British Chargé d’Affaires called to see me this morning. Mr. Butler stated first that his Government was deeply appreciative of the steps taken by the United States Government through its Minister in Baghdad to express the interest of the United States in the maintenance of close and friendly relations between Great Britain and Iraq.
