[Washington,] 22 May 1945.

Number 46, personal and top secret, from the President to the Prime Minister.

I am asking Mr. Joseph E. Davies to come to see you prior to the pending conference between you, Marshal Stalin and myself. There are a number of matters that I want him to explore with you and which I would prefer not to handle by cable. Mr. Davies will be in London probably the twenty-fifth. I would appreciate it if you could see him at your convenience.

Truman
