"I have arranged satisfactorily for Tube Alloys. Unless
you have the proper person in this country now, to get full
understanding from our people it might be well if your top
man in this enterprise comes over. "
Churchill began his telegram of reply, dated July 30, with the words:
"I am most grateful to you for the news in your No. 326. "
In my opinion, as of July 30, 1943, both Roosevelt and Churchill
understood that there was to be a complete sharing of all information
concerning the bomb.
In his letter to Roosevelt of August 7, 1943, Dr. Bush reported that
he and Sir John Anderson concurred in the draft of the Agreement, as
finally signed. He said:
"Pursuant to your instructions contained in your letter
of July twentieth, I have proceeded to arrange for further
interchange with the British on the subject of tube alloy. "
In subsequent paragraphs, Dr. Bush referred to "the object of providing
the British with all of the information which they can utilize in this
connection in the prosecution of the war" and stated that no step had been
taken "which could be regarded as either improper or improvident. 11 He did
not say in so many words, however, that the British would not get the
manufacturing know-how.
What Sir John said to Churchill about the draft of the Agreement is,
of course, not known to anyone over here.
