I attach a memorandum regarding Communism which the Pope discused breifly   
in or first audience, but which was rewritten by Monsegneur Tardini (marked  
                            "C").                           
 
A further audience will be accored me on Wednesday, July 19.

First: to convince the Pope and other Vatican authorities that the German   
            Army msut surrender unconditionally;            
 
                                                            
 
 
Second: that cooperation with Russia in the interest of victory and   
            permanent world peace is essential;             
 
                                                            
 
 
Third: that an International Organization must be created at as early a   
date as possible to implement the settlement of war problems and to insure   
future peace.  I have not felt free to use specific details of any such   
                          project.                          
 
              With highest regards, believe me              
 
                      Sincerely yours,
