MEMORANDUM OF CONVERSATION WITH THE PRESIDENT
Item 1. Meeting of the North Atlantic Council
I reported to the President that we had been in touch with
Mr. Van Zeeland, the Chairman of the North Atlantic Council,
and had suggested a joint meeting of the Council and Defense
Committee for Monday and Tuesday, December 18th and 19th.
This was in accordance with the conversation between the
President and Mr. Attlee, the British Ambassador and myself.
The President approved of setting the date as early as possible
and of making an announcement as soon as possible.
The President asked me about transportation and said
he would speak to General Landry about making either the
Independence or the Defense Department constellation available.
The President thought it preferable for me to go in the President's
own plane. I thanked the President for his consideration and
said that I did not wish to inconvenience him in any way. He may
be leaving for Christmas at home on the 22nd.
