NUMBER 271, PERSONAL AND TOP SECRET, FROM THE PRESIDENT TO MARSHAL
STALIN.
I was most pleased to receive your wire in regard to Mr. Hopkins'
visit. I feel that it is wiser that I make an announcement of his pro-
posed visit to Moscow following his departure from the United States
rather than risk having it leak out and become the subject of speculation
in the press. Mr. Hopkins plans to leave tomorrow morning, May 23, and
later in the day I propose to announce to the press that he is proceeding
to Moscow with Ambassador Harriman to talk over with you matters now in
discussion between the Soviet and United States Governments.
