281 Evatt to Churchill (in Quebec)

Cablegram 270 [1] CANBERRA, 15 September 1944

MOST IMMEDIATE TOP SECRET AND PERSONAL

Following for Mr. Churchill from Dr. Evatt.

Begins.

We are very pleased at your inviting Glasgow to Quebec. [2] As you
know appearances are very important in such matters and there has
been some press criticism in this country of the fact that
Australia is not formally represented at the Conference. In the
circumstances your sending for Australian and New Zealand
representatives is very wise and statesmanlike and Glasgow informs
me that you will be reporting results to Curtin in due course.

Kindest personal regards.

Ends.
