Scope and Contents

Telegram from WSC to Anthony Eden [later Lord Avon, Foreign Secretary] and Lord Halifax [earlier Edward Wood and Lord Irwin, British Ambassador in the United States] marked "Personal and Top Secret" on several matters which require "very quick handling": the need for a decision to be taken on the situation in the Netherlands; the issuing of a warning to the Germans on their treatment of prisoners of war; Eisenhower's invitation to British and American politicians and the press to view liberated "torture camps"; and pressing Sweden to enter the war effort to help liberate Norway.
