THE UNDER SECRETARY OF STATE WASHINGTON 
 
      May l, 1943 
 
 
      My dear Mr. President:
 
      
 
 
I have just received a letter from Halifax giving me the text 
      of a telegram he has received from the Foreign Office containing 
      certain changes which the Prime Minister has made in his message 
      to Stalin (quoted in his message No. 289 to you). Mr. Eden has 
      asked that you be informed immediately of these changes and I 
      consequently enclose copies of the two
 
      messages for your information.
 
      
 
 
Believe me
 
      Faithfully yours,
 
      Sumner Welles (signed)
 
      Enc.
 
      
 
 
The President,
 
      The White House.
