O'Donoghue, Sidney E., Buenos Aires. To G.S. Messersmith, Washington., 1947 January 03

Enclosure: See No. 1838. Transmitting copies of memorandum prepared within Embassy respecting matters allegedly discussed between Soviet Ambassador [Mikhail] Serqueev and Foreign Minister [Vyacheslav M.] Molotov in New York; according to paragraph 1, Soviet Embassy in Buenos Aires has designated one of its secretaries to set up publishing company which will prepare and distribute Soviet propaganda throughout Argentine and other American republics; note that last paragraph deals with Messersmith; things very quiet; taking care of things as they come along, so that there will be few hold-overs for Messersmith to worry about on his return.
