Letter from WSC (in the air) to Edward informing him of the outcome of a meeting with President Roosevelt, Vice President Henry Agard Wallace and himself stating that they were a little concerned that other countries may become worried that Britain and the United States were "trying to boss the world." Agreement was reached on the principal that foreigners should adopt the citizenship of the country in which they settle but that it should be retained in the Anglo American sphere. All thought that the Anglo-American Combined staff institution should continue. WSC asks him to forward passages of this letter to Foreign Secretary [Anthony Eden, later 1st Lord Avon] but not to circulate them until his return and stresses that it was made clear that he was at all times just expressing his personal view.
