The Acting Secretary of State to the Ambassador in the United Kingdom (Winant)
6754. Colonel Hoskins has returned from his trip to Saudi Arabia, reference your cable 4286, June 29, and has reported in detail to the Department and to the President on the results of his mission and on other information that he collected during his visit.
In his letter to you dated June 29 Mr. Eden expressed a wish that the British Government might be “kept most fully informed as to the tenor and outcome” of Colonel Hoskins’ mission. The President has approved my suggestion that Colonel Hoskins visit London so as to give in person and in such detail as may be desired the results of his [Page 822] visit to the Prime Minister and to other British officials interested. Please advise the Foreign Office of Colonel Hoskins’ prospective visit and assist him during his stay in London.
