The Acting Secretary of State to the Minister in Portugal (Norweb)

675. Your 449, February 12, 6 p.m. In the wolfram negotiations on which you have now embarked it will be well to keep London currently informed of all developments. The Department is hopeful that these negotiations will be conducted rapidly to a successful conclusion [Page 97] and it is of primary importance that the British and we maintain a completely unbroken front.
