Foreign Relations of the United States, The Conferences at Washington, 1941–1942, and Casablanca, 1943

Hopkins Papers

The British Minister of Supply (Beaverbrook) to the Presidents Special Assistant (Hopkins)

Washington, January 1, 1942.

My Dear Harry, Cables & Wireless will agree to the proposals for prohibiting transmissions by wireless from South America to Italy and Tokyo.

Cables & Wireless warn me that diplomatic action in South America will be necessary, as the services there are controlled by local companies.

I am getting a cable on the subject tomorrow and I will then write another letter.

Yours ever,

Max
