THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON August 23, 1945. MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT: Leo Crowley telephoned this after- noon and reported that everything had been arranged satisfactorily with General de Gaulle. They went into the matters of inventory, stock pile and procurement. General de Gaulle is expected to seek an appointment tomorrow to talk to you in connection with a request for a loan of five hundred million dollars. Crowley says that a reasonable amount will be considered but he does not know whether the entire amount could be granted at this time. He says that he expects you will have no trouble with de Gaulle and that he appears to be satisfied that France is getting the same consideration that is being given other countries.
