My telegrams 24, 22 and 21. [1] Prisoners of war liberated by Red
Army.

It is desired that you handle this matter with Soviet authorities
on highest necessary level with view to ensuring that all
Australians liberated by Soviet forces will be satisfactorily
cared for and repatriated without delay.

2. In particular you should make arrangements for obtaining full
access for yourself or a member of the Legation to camps where
Australians are accommodated.

3. Please keep us fully informed of all developments which come to
your knowledge, and as soon as you are in a position let us have a
report as to what facilities and expenses required.
