Memorandum by President Roosevelt to the Secretary of State
Washington
, February 28,
1945.
I desire that you, as Secretary of State, assume the responsibility for seeing that the conclusions, exclusive of course of military matters, reached at the Crimea Conference, be carried forward. In so doing you will, I know, wish to confer with other officials of this Government on matters touching upon their respective fields. I will expect you to report to me direct on the progress you are making in carrying the Crimea decisions into effect in conjunction with our Allies.
F[ranklin] D. R[oosevelt]
