No. 534 NAI DFA 419/44
Letter from Joseph P. Walshe to David Gray (Dublin)
(Confidential)
DUBLIN, 26 January 1945
Dear David,
I have your letter of the 25th January enclosing a paraphrase of a telegram from your Department in Washington about the Jewish internees in the German concentration camps at Oswiecim and Birkenau.
Perhaps you would be good enough to let your Authorities know that, immediately upon receipt of their representations, we wired our Chargé d'Affaires in Berlin to approach the German Authorities at once. I hope that, as a result, we may get some re-assuring news.
I hope your cold is better. Mine is somewhat improved, but it is difficult to shake off colds in this appalling weather.
Yours very sincerely,
[stamped] (SIGNED) J. P. WALSHE
