According to the account in Acheson, Present at the Creation, page 618, the Foreign Ministers were part of a “large company” which dined with Eden. No record has been found of the dinner. According to the Acheson account, Schuman and Adenauer held a private meeting on the Saar question. This is probably the same meeting alluded to in Adenauer, Memoirs, page 409. Acheson further indicates that he met with Eden and gave guidance to a British-American working group preparing a draft paper on security controls. This draft paper is presumably the same as the report on security controls discussed at the tripartite meeting on the morning of February 19; see Barnes’ minutes, page 72.
