Editorial Note
According to the Log, ante, p. 464, Molotov called on Roosevelt after Stalin had departed. No record has been found of the remarks exchanged by Roosevelt and Molotov during this visit. That the visit was short, and may have been limited to an exchange of courtesies, is suggested by the fact that Roosevelt’s conversation with Stalin, which preceded it, is stated in the Bohlen minutes to have ended at 4 o’clock, and the meeting which followed it is stated to have begun at that same time. A brief reference to Molotov’s call is in Elliott Roosevelt, p. 176.
