The Secretary of State to the Chargé in the United Kingdom (Bucknell)

Washington, December 2, 1943.

7616. Your 8402, 2d. Procedure outlined is very agreeable to us. A statement which can mutually be modified in phraseology to some extent to meet our respective needs would seem to be a very practical solution and could be used here in connection with the statement Long made to the House Committee11 as it could be used there as basis for statement to Parliament. Your close attention to this matter is appreciated and is entirely justified by the importance which it assumes here from the point of view of public interest.
