Brief Notes on Pace-Acheson conversation
Saturday.
1. Eisenhower willing to have the operation
of naming him 'upreme Commander on the
basis of naming him specifically.
2. Read letter drafted by Collins for
President to send to Fisenhower.
3. The letter would be "announced" the
next day after original announcement of
appointment
4. Secretary said he did not think letter
as drafted designated Eisenhower by Presi- -
dent. Peldins replied that he thought they
agreed that President would send Secretary
a message designating General Eisenhower
as being a vailable and that the Council
would make the announcement of the actual
appointment. Secretary said the idea was
that the President would send him (the
Sec.) a message saying that, in accordance
with the request of the Council, he had
designated Eisenhower. Collins agreed that
this would entail chanting first sentence,
which he agreed to do.
4. Collins said one point which worried
Loyett was that no where in the letter did
it) say that armed forces in Europe are
cutegorically
hereby placed under Eisenhower as Supreme
Commander. But Lovett thought phrase
"hereby assigned operation command etc."
did it. Sec. agreed.
