The Acting Secretary of State to the Secretary of State ⁴⁸

Washington , June 2, 1945.

13. It was my understanding that the following telegram had been sent by the President to you directly on May 30:

“Please inform Soong orally that Marshal Stalin desires to discuss important matters with him in Moscow not later than July first.

“We will provide air transportation to Moscow upon receipt of advance information of the date of his departure.

“For your information this proposed meeting is for a discussion of the tripartite agreement reached at Yalta in regard to Japan.”
