DEPARTMENT INCOMING DIVISION OF OF CENTRAL SERVICES STATE TELEGRAM TELEGRAPH SECTION EDW-1175 Santiago This telegram must be closely paraphrased be- Dated May 25, 1945 fore being communicated to anyone. (SCOREDT REC'd 8:16 p.m. Secretary of State O. 11652, Sec. 3(E) and 5(D) or (E) Washington Dept. of State letter, Aug. 10, 197%, INLTH- NARS Date 7.25.75 664, May 25, Noon. FOR GREW President Truman's letter inviting Rios to the States in October was received with Elation and immediate- ly accepted with the promise of a formal letter to Truman for the following morning This delivered to me and sent on by pouch, leaving here yesterday. In SECRET despatch No. 4903, May 10 is the suggestion that no announcement of invitation be made until it can be done simultaneously, released at same time in both capitals. I impressed this on Rios who of course agreed but it is very clear that he is Eager to have the announcement. I hope, therefore, that the DEPT will inform me by telegraph and that Earliest possible date be set since I know it will be difficult to kEEP the secret long because Rios will certainly make confidential mention to Some official friends who may lzak. Since the invitation is made and accepted, I assume there ean be no reason for much delay BOWERS VTD
