I I ; MEMORANDUM FOR DEFENCE LIAISON (1) DIVISION \ v </'S> 1 \ ' [ _^~ Meeting on Scientific Consultation In Washington Mr. Robertson telephoned me late yesterday to say that he had just been called to a very private meeting with Mr. Murphy and Sir Harold Caccia. The purpose of the meeting was to bring Canada into the tripartite fold and invite us to the meeting on Scientific Consultation beginning on Tuesday. I said that I thought Mr. Merchant had already spoken to our Minister on this subject. Mr. Robertson said he understood that there were to be joint representations to us. As today is an American holiday and he was leaving Washington, Mr. Robertson was anxious to inform us before departing. The attached telegram No. 2528 from Washington follows up this conversation. The point which Mr. Robertson stressed in particular was the absolute necessity of keeping this operation quiet. It would be most embarrassing if it were known that Canada was participating because of the "4th country problem". He had some doubts as to whether it could be kept quiet as Sir William Penney was coming out from England. However, he was most anxious that a leak, if there was one, should not come from Ottawa. I said that we were very well aware of this aspect of the invitation. J.W.H.
