President Truman to Secretary Byrnes,
telegram no. 351 from the White House to London,
September 24, 1945
(files of the Executive Secretariat)
The following is Stalin's reply to my second
message of 22 September:
"I have received your second message regarding
the Council of Ministers.
I have received today a reply from Mr. V. M.
Molotov who informed me that he is acting in accord-
ance with the decision of the Berlin Conference and
considers that this decision should not be violated.
On my part, I have to remind you that at the Berlin
Conference neither a decision was adopted nor was
it agreed among us that the members of the Council
who did not sign the Terms of Surrender could par-
ticipate in the discussions but could not vote.
I consider that the position of Molotov to adhere
strictly to the decision of the Berlin Conference
cannot make a bad impression and should not offend
anybody.'
Please inform the Prime Minister and tell him
that I am in agreement with his message number 11.1
