(Don Iddon. London Dally Mall
correspondent, suggested in a dis-
patch from Quebec that Gen.
Dwight D. Elsenhower may attend
the meeting and added that he
might already be in Canada, though
he said this could not be confirm-
ed.
w.— CThere is a growing Impression
„ ta Quebec that Allied leaders and
- the military staff are waiting for
, something and someone—not Just
' President Roosevelt," Iddon wrote.)
..In previous meetings of the two
United Nations leaders, starting
w with the one two years ago at which
JJiey formulated the Atlantic Char-
xif^r, secrecy has been the rule. There
,, were no advance announcements
=: and strict censorship cotrnol pre-
vailed.
r; But this time the entire pattern
j-Ra* changed It was pretty much
of a certainty that Churchill again
was coming across the Atlantic His
arrival in Quebec was announced.
The press-was allowed to state that
he and Mr Roosevelt had held a
preliminary conference at the Preai-
— dent’s home at Hyde Park. N. Y..
and that American chiefs of staff
were here to confer with British
< ; staff chiefs.
Censorship restrictions on move-
mprjts of the chief executive were
lifted to permit advance disclosure
'that he was coining here for the
.war parleys.
---- Encourages "Speculation
The policy apparently lias been
one of encouraging all sorts of spec-
ulation on what was going on in
tills ancient provincial capital and
on what was likely to occur.
