The Secretary of State to the Personal Representative of President Roosevelt in India (Phillips)
Washington, January 28,
1943—10 p.m.
58. Bowles departed for India before your no. 55 of January 21 was received. The difficulties likely to be encountered in Afghanistan were brought to his attention before his departure, however, and he stated that he would contact Engert before embarking upon any plans. The views of the British Government on this subject were brought to our attention by the British Embassy.
Bowles is now in India and will presumably call at your Mission. Please inform Kabul.
