President Roosevelt to Prime Minister Churchill 1

secret
urgent—priority
[Washington,] December 31, 1942.

From the President for the Former Naval Person personal and secret No. 248.

Arrangements for Symbol satisfactory. Our Chiefs of Staff will arrive twelfth and I will follow two days later so that we could all meet together on fifteenth. I believe our staffs can cover the ground in a two day preliminary conference. The prospect pleases me.

Roosevelt
