MEETING WITH THE PRESIDENT
Item No. 1
SERVICE'A
Italy and the Atlantic Pact
CONTINUED
I informed the President of the situation which
arose at our meeting with the Ambassadors on Friday,
of the inquiry from Norway as to the possibility of
their joining at onee, and the a ttempt by the French
Ambassador to link the admission of Italy with that
of Norway.
After some discussion of the matter, the President
said that he had no final views on the matter, that
he wished me to talk with the Senators, but that he
was inclined to believe at present that it would be
wiser not to have Italy one of the original signers
and possibly not in the Pact at all. He would like
to consider at some time the possibility of a
Nediterranean arrangement.
For the present he thought it advisable for me
to take a firm position on Norway and to continue
to hold the Italian matter open.
