My telegram Bo, 1178, ^
' Mr, Willkie's visit to Tehran has, from our point of
view, "been an undouhted success and should serve as a singular
stimulant to the Persian Government, He succeeded at one and
the same time, in exploiting to the full the special position
-enjoyed hy America in the minds of the Persian people and in
disillusioning politicians as to the possibility, for which
some have certainly hoped, of using America to hamper the
Allied v/ar effort where Persian interests are involved.
Mr. WiUkle 1 s firm speech, to which full publicity has been
given, at Ministry of Foreign Affairs dinner (see my telegram
No. 450. Empax for tex t f as expounded by Mr. Willkie after
wards) must have removed any doubt concerning America's
attitude to the war and made it clear that Persian Government's
failure to precipitate a positive attitude towards moral
aspects of the war at any rate was not approved by the United
States Governments
During his visit, Mr. Willkie had the opportunity of
seeing all the eminent personalities including the Shah.
The latter's trip in Mr. Willkie's aeroplane over Tehran
certainly captured the public imagi^ 0 *^ llkie left
for Moscow by air early this mornings
