From: Washington
To: Vichy
Dated: March 4, 1942
Rec'd: March 9, 1942.

Message No. 873, 874.

Thus on yesterday's radio broadcast of the Mutual Broadcast (ing) System M. HEATTER made some remarks with reference to our country ... ... that this ... refused to give him the ... of an explanation. M. HEATTER accused France, because of her (policies?) in Europe and China, of all the calamities which (have come upon?) the world ... . For his part ... ... M. STOWE (likened?) the conversations between Vichy and Washington to those between M. CORDELL HULL and M. KURUSU held (at the instigation of?) the President in November and December:- "these conversations will end in the same manner, adds M. STOWE, but the French ... will have much less importance than the Japanese". The ... declares that he is "less anxious concerning the future of the French fleet than concerning the fact that French workmen have begun working 24 hours a day for the Germans".
