Secretary Byrnes to Ambassador Harriman,
telegram no : 2175 to i Moscow,
October 17, 1945, 11 a.m.
(file 894.30/10-1745)
Please deliver the following message from me
personally to Mr. Molotov:
"While in London I advised you that the United
States Government desired to sink the units of the
Japanese fleet which were surrendered to the United
States Navy and that I had requested that this
action be delayed until I could inform you and
Mr. Bevin of our plan. You did not then present any
views.
" I am writing now to say that the Navy again
has communicated with me, and if you care to express
any views with reference to this plan, I should like
to hear at an early date so that I can advise the
officials of our Navy.
"With best wishes."
