PERSONAL AND CONFIDENTIAL

Canberra, le 20 mai 1952

My dear Pearson -

From time to time the idea crops up in the minds of a certain number of people here that we should work towards squeezing the U.S.S.R. out of the United Nations. I have not had an opportunity to discuss even the vague possibilities of this with individuals like yourself. The plus and minus of such action are reasonably apparent. I would be grateful if you would let me know, for my personal and confidential information, what your views are on the subject - and if much thought has been given to this question by the few others whose views would carry weight on such a subject. The fact that there has been, so far as I know, no overt move in this direction, would seem to indicate that at least Britain and America believe that the best interests are served by U.S.S.R. remaining in the United Nations rather than out.

However, if you would care to write to me privately on the subject, I would be most interested.43

I am,
Yours sincerely,

R.G. CASEY
