Wallace Urges Appeasement Toward Russia in 1945 Memo

In a July 23 letter to President Truman Wallace urged a policy to allay Russian fears and pursue security guarantees, a cautious peace approach, and possible Soviet cooperation. He proposed negotiating international control for atomic bombs, countering anti-Russia fear, and even sending a Moscow trade mission while criticizing allied links with Britain. He warned against two militarist camps advocating perpetual arming or preventive war, and criticized U.S. postwar actions as diminishing peace prospects. The memo names key figures and outlines stances on security guarantees, international control, and diplomacy.
