DECLASSIFIED E. O. 11652, Sec. 3(E) and 5(D) or (E) TOP SECRET Depr. of State letter, Aug. 9, 1973 Galestine By NLT- He NARS Date 2-15-75 SIGNAL CENTER The White House URGENT 25 July 1946 From: Prime Minister Attlee, signed Bissell. To : President Truman. Nr : 3027. 251820Z. PERSONAL AND The conversations between American and British officials on Palestine and related problems are now almost concluded and agree- ment has been reached on all matters of substance. I understand that their recommendations have been telegraphed to you. I am sure you will agree that the inhuman crime committed in Jerusalem on 22nd July calls for the strongest action against terrorism but having regard to the sufferings of innocent Jewish victims of Nazism this should not deter us from introducing a policy designed to bring peace to Palestine with the least possible delay. I hope, therefore, that you will be able to give urgent attention to the agreed recom- mendations of the two delegations and to let us have your views in the next few days. I have had some useful talks with Amba ssador Grady and his colleagues, and I should like you to know that the British officials have paid a warm tribute to their energy and co- operative spirit in the discussions here.
