260
The Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs to the Prime Minister of New Zealand

26 December 1941

The following telegram has been received from the Prime Minister at Washington:

Prime Minister to Prime Minister of New Zealand.

Your telegrams [No. 257] and No. 253.4 I am consulting the President and his officers about the points involved.

I will send you a full telegram shortly about all the measures we are taking in conjunction with the United States to cope with the Japanese in the Pacific.

I profoundly admire the courage and composure with which New Zealand is facing the new situation so full of immediate danger and of ultimate safety.
