MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT
Subject: Anglo-American Petroleum Agreement
I refer to President Roosevelt's memorandum of
March 27, 1945, indicating that he would like to meet
with Secretary Ickes and me immediately upon his re-
turn from Warm Springs in order to discuss what steps
should be taken next to facilitate the definitive nego-
tiation of an Anglo-American Petroleum Agreement. I
refer also to Secretary Ickes' letter to President
Roosevelt, dated March 26, 1945.
Since receiving this note from President Roosevelt,
Secretary Ickes and I have been in telephone consulta-
tion on this matter.
In the very near future there will be a meeting of
the Committee which President Roosevelt appointed to
conduct petroleum negotiations with the Government of
the United Kingdom, of which Committee I am Chairman
and Secretary Ickes is Vice-Chairman. At this forth-
coming meeting I hope that we shall be able to agree
upon a revised draft as a basis for renegotiation with
the British.
I shall inform you promptly of the outcome of this
meeting.
