The Ambassador to the Yugoslav Government in Exile (MacVeagh) to the Secretary of State
[Received April 14—3:30 p.m.]
Yugos 90. My Yugos 76, March 30. Yesterday the clandestine radio set of DC in Rumania operated for the first time since April 4 and transmitted an undated message from Marshal Antonescu to General Wilson apparently written 5 or 6 days ago. It was a sentimental and verbose appeal for British-American help containing neither facts nor proposals.
[Page 175]This morning the agreed armistice terms were transmitted to DC for Antonescu and Maniu and DC acknowledged receipt. The message sent via Ankara (my Yugos 87, April 1262) was not sent on to Rumania since previous messages by that route were not acknowledged and may have been intercepted.
