Editorial Note
The memorandum on zones of occupation in Germany approved by the Combined Chiefs of Staff on September 16, 1944, supra, was agreed to by Roosevelt and Churchill later on the same day (see ante, p. 381) and was incorporated as paragraphs 33–34 in the final agreed summary of conclusions reached by the Combined Chiefs of Staff at the Octagon Conference (see post, p. 476). Although the allocation of sectors in Berlin was also left unsettled in the European Advisory Commission protocol of September 12, 1944 (see ante, p. 388), no evidence has been found that this question was discussed at Quebec. A map reflecting the Quebec decisions was prepared in Washington immediately after the Quebec Conference and was forwarded to Winant as an enclosure to the Department of State’s instruction No. 4563, September 21, 1944 (740.00119 EAC/9–2044, not printed). A map showing the lines approved at Quebec was also annexed in Washington to the memorandum approved by the Combined Chiefs of Staff (C.C.S. 320/27), supra. This map is reproduced facing p. 476. Concerning further negotiations on this subject leading to an agreement signed in the European Advisory Commission on November 14, 1944, see the editorial note, ante, p. 365.
