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

6138. Please convey the following message to the Prime Minister:

“Your clear and direct reference to Argentina in the Commons effectively states our common position toward the Farrell regime. It is a great contribution. There can now be no doubt in Argentina or anywhere else concerning our joint determination to stand firm on nonrecognition and to see the business through until we are certain that there is no remaining vestige of Nazi power or influence in this hemisphere. The Secretary, who is away from the Department for a few days, has personally asked that I associate him wholeheartedly with this message.”
