PRIME MINISTER TO LORD HALIFAX

Following for President from "Rejoined" Naval Person.


Impossible to reach mouth of POTOMAC before 6.30.p.m. E.S.T. which would be too late for plan you have so kindly made for us. Can anchor Hampton Roads Gate 4.15.p.m. E.S.T.

I should like to come on by aircraft to Washington Airfield reaching you in time for dinner.

If weather prevents this could I have a train to Washington from whatever is most convenient starting point in the vicinity of Hampton Roads?

Please on no account come out to meet me either way. Looking forward so much to seeing you at the White House. WINSTON,
