Sharing A Joke

Discussing

arrangements pro- ceding the meeting, President Roosevelt said that from the American end the whole idea was to assure the security and safety of Mr. Churchill and his staff.

The joke was, he said, that It was later found that tho principal anxiety of the British the safety. of, the party was President and those; adcom- panying him.

Well Kept

The secret was well kept, Pre- sident Roosevelt said, yet the press had good reason to notice the absence of certain key figures in Washington and London. ⠀

The newspapers, he added," should be congratulated for their restraint during what he called "a black-out week,"

He added that even now the time and place of the meeting" could not be divulged and per- haps could not be until after the war. Reuter,
