Notes and topics

"Personal and confidential".

BR informs Khrushchev that the Soviet Ambassador in London, Soldatov, has suggested that publishing both BR's letter and Khrushchev's could help "the cause of peace".

BR also states that he is not "... in favour of communism any more than of capitalism as at present practised." BR thinks that publication would diminish his own influence in the West.

On 14 October 1964 Khrushchev "retired".

Also present is a copy of the letter, TL(CAR). His letter exists also in dictated form (RA1 750), record 7656.
