The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in the United Kingdom ( Winant )

2449. Moscow reports that British Ambassador there has not been instructed by the Foreign Office on the proposed declaration on Denmark (Department’s 2131, March 21, midnight). Mr. Harriman prefers not to inform the Soviet Government regarding the proposal until we are in a position to furnish it with the proposed draft. Department approves of his suggestion and is so informing him. Please notify Foreign Office.
