                              UNION OF SOVIET SOCIALIST REPUBLICS
                                        WASHINGTON, D.C.
 
     TO THE PRESIDENT FROM J. STALIN
 
     I received your message on the 16th December.
 
As there was no mention of the object of the suggested
 
conferences in Chunking and Moscow, and that there was
 
only one day left before their opening, I thought I
 
might be able, in conversation with Mr. Eden, who has
 
just arrived in Moscow, to elucidate the question of the
 
objects of the conferences, and to find out whether they
 
could be postponed for some time. It transpired, however,             
 
that Mr. Eden has no information on this point, either.
 
In view of the above, I should be glad to receive from
 
you the necessary details, to ensure that the participation
 
of representatives of the Union of Soviet Socialist Re-
 
publics in these conferences should bring results. Allow
 
me to thank you for the feelings you expressed with regard
 
to the successes of the Soviet army. I wish you all
 
success in your struggle against the aggression in the
 
Pacific. I send you and Mr. Hopkins my warm personal
 
greetings.
