The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in Mexico (Messersmith)
Washington, March 21,
1945—noon.
605. With reference to my letter to you of March 1633 concerning Clipperton Island, the President has approved Department’s suggestion that we should not endeavor to obtain any change in the present sovereignty of the island, and that we should handle the question of a post-war military base solely with the French.
