Meeting With President, June 7, 1949

israeli propaganda in palestine case

I informed the President of the activities of certain agents of the Israeli Government and he requested me to stand completely firm in the position we have taken. If necessary, he is agreeable to the Department informing the Israeli Ambassador that, unless such activities cease, our note will be immediately released and the Department will take action to clear up any possible misunderstanding that has been created.
