The Ambassador to the Yugoslav Government in Exile (MacVeagh) to the Secretary of State

Yugos 81. My Yugos 80, April 3, 8 p.m. Yesterday Prince Stirbey sent a message to Maniu in the following sense:

The time for halfhearted measures has passed. If after the British message today and the Molotov declaration you are still unable to take the action you asked me to affirm that you would take under even less exigent circumstances, I am forced to assume that you have grave reasons for not doing so and to conclude that there is no further point in my mission here.
