MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT
Subject: Current Foreim Develomments
EAC Approves Control Machinery for Austria. EAC has
approved the final text of the agreement on control machin-
ery for Austria. Winant transmits the amendments made to
the basic UK draft of January 25.
SAC Disturbed Over US Withdrawal. SAC has told Kirk
that he is much disappointed with General Mcliarney's state-
ment on arriving in the US that by the end of this year
except for a US division in Venezia Giulia only 2,500 US
troops will be left in Italy. SAC asked whether there was
any possibility of a change in US redeployment policy and
whether the US would not retain on the Continent "a con-
siderable number" of troops for some time or at least until
all the major problems arising from the war have been fully
settled. Kirk said that he had no further information on
this subject but in any event considered it one for the
highest levol. SAC said that Churchill would take up with
the President "with great vigor" the urgent desirability
of leaving substantial US forces in Italy and elsewhere
on the Continent.
The Chief Commissioner of AC Italy has strongly recom-
mended that at least five Allied divisions be kept in Italy,
plus whatever administrative or service units are needed
