Memorandum of Conversation, by the Assistant Chief of the Division of Near Eastern Affairs (Jones)

At my request Mr. Eralp87a called at 10:30 a.m. today. I handed him the text of the note delivered by Ambassador Wilson to the Turkish Minister for Foreign Affairs at 3:30 p.m., November 2.

Mr. Eralp read the note and smiled broadly. He said that in his opinion it was “very satisfactory” and that “Turkey could have hoped for nothing better.”
