                    WINSTON S. CHURCHILL, M.P.              
 
                      PRIME MINISTER, LONDON                
 
                                                            
 
 
Early in October you were good enough to agree to defer for 
      a while the signature of meat contract with the Farrell regime 
      in Argentina. Your refusal to sign a contract has helped us tremendously. 
      It has increased the uncertainty, which has driven the Colonels 
                    to a desperate condition.               
 
      We believe that if our tactics can be continued, we have a very 
      good chance of putting an end within a reasonable time to a Fascist 
      regime that otherwise would be a threat to the peace and security 
            of this continent for many years to come.       
 
                                                            
 
 
I have been concerned to hear recent reports that you may 
      shortly take up the matter of the Argentine meat contract with 
                            us again.                       
 
                                                            
 
 
It is my strong personal conviction that if you sign a meat 
      contract with the Farrell regime the consequences will be disastrous 
      and much farther reaching than we have been able to make some 
      of your people understand. Such action would be propagandized 
      by the Argentine regime to demonstrate
