The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in the United Kingdom (Winant)
4779. Your 4874, July 26, 8 p.m., and previous. We are in accord with British Government’s proposal to have its Ambassador at Moscow [Page 202] associate himself with our Ambassador in approach to Soviet Government and have today telegraphed our Ambassador to proceed.
Following excerpt from Department’s telegram to Moscow is quoted for your and British Government’s information:
[Here follows paragraph 4 of telegram No. 662, August 7, 6 p.m., to the Ambassador in the Soviet Union, printed supra.]
Such insertion in the second paragraph would require change of second sentence thereof and in quoting proposed declaration to Moscow Department changed that sentence to read: “They further declare that it is a part of their settled policy” etc.
