     In my Judgment it is of the highest importance that immediate steps be taken to prepare
the way for our common action against our common enemy. To this end I respectfully suggest
that you call a Joint confernce to take place in Chungking not later than December to exchange
information and to consider the military and naval action which may most effectively be employee
to accomplish the defeat of Japan and her allies I suggest, that the conferees consist of
representatives of China, Great Britain, the Dutch, United States, sassisted the U.S.S.R., and I am
prepared to designate at once Major General George It. Brett as representative of the United
States assisted by Brigadier General John Magruder. I venture to hope that such a conference in
Chungking may eventually lead to the establishment of a more permanant organization to plan and
direct our joint efforts.
