Editorial Note

The Log, ante, p. 299, indicates that Admiral Mountbatten and Madame Chiang called separately on the President during the forenoon of November 26. Apparently no memoranda of these conversations were made either by or for the President. Elliott Roosevelt, p. 166, contains a reference to the calls. Presumably the principal subject of both conversations was the attitude of Chiang toward the proposed operations in the China–Burma–India theater; see Stilwell’s Command Problems, p. 65.
