The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in the United Kingdom (Winant)

729. Personal for Matthews. Please personally deliver the following message to Mr. Eden from me:

“The President has shown some annoyance at the continued propaganda emanating from the de Gaulle Headquarters in London. The President labels their attitude as a continuing irritant. He knows that the Prime Minister would agree with him and hopes that you can take further steps to allay the irritation.”
