Editorial Note
From June 25 to 29 Prime Minister Churchill and Foreign Secretary Eden were in Washington for conversations with President Eisenhower and Secretary Dulles on topics of mutual concern. In the course of their discussions they agreed to set up an Anglo-American Study Group on Germany.
The Anglo-American Study Group on Germany met in London July 5–12, focusing its attention on possible alternatives to the European Defense Community (EDC) failing French ratification. Under the leadership of Frank Roberts and Cecil Lyon the study group drafted a report with several annexes which was submitted to both governments on July 12. For further documentation on the work of the study group including text of the report, see volume V, Part 1, pages 997 ff.
