The Chief of Staff, United States Army (Marshall), to the Under Secretary of State (Welles)
Washington, November 20,
1942.
Dear Mr. Welles: A message has been sent to General Eisenhower, informing him of the desires of the President as indicated in the draft of a proposed message of instructions from the State Department to Mr. Murphy which you sent me under date of November 13, 1942. In the message I suggested to General Eisenhower that these matters be accomplished as soon as he considered the measures practicable.
You will be kept informed of the developments in the situation.
Faithfully yours,
G. C. Marshall
