President Truman add Prime Min
ister Winston Churchill of Great
Britain are going to meet in Wash
ington in January.
The meeting was announced at a
news conference yesterday by Pres
idential Secretary Joseph Short
with a casualness associated with
the Truman administration’s han
dling of important events.
Short was telling reporters at
a news conference of how the Pres
ident got up early Sunday and
walked outside the naval submarine
station, where he has his quarters,
and of how he swam and sunbathed
at the naval submarine station.
Suddenly, a reporter asked about
a story, by John M. Hightower of
the Associated Press, that Church
ill is expected to visit Washington
early in January for talks with the
President.
“Quite probably, the Prime Min
ister wil be in Washington some
time in January,” Short said.

No matter what the two dis

Churchill, Short said, has had an
exchange of messages with the
President.

He added that he knew of no
Potsdam in 1945. Churchill was
replaced by Labor Prime Minister
Attlee in the midst of the confer
