SUBACT: e.4 ovo am ser.ding you herewith a memorandum prepared, by Ralph 3. Bunch?, the Chief of our African Section, This very cogent memorandum exposes what seems to me to be a very sad state of affairs. From all indications, . the coming of peace negotiations will and us completely unprepared on matters relating to Africa while our Allis., have put a good deal or time and effort on this complelt of problems. If you agree, I should like to suggest that Dr. Bunalle be sent to London to open up this situation. I mm sure that it would be General Donovants view that if 6 no145 else is attending those matters, OSS at least should keep abreast of the times. In this connection I think I ought to say that although Dr. Bunche is a Negro, he has extensive connections both in this country and abroad and enjoys the esteem of everyone with whom he works. He has lived In Enzlwid, Prance, and Holland and haa done extensive field work in Africa. He is personally known to colonial rundLionaries, both high and low, not only among the British but among the Frenoh, Dutch, Portuguese, Belgianat and Spa4lish. As you doubtless remember, he ottetAded the Mnnt Tremblant and Lake Couchiching confer- ences in Canada and dealt with high British officials like Lord Halley, r John Pratt, and many others. There is no question wkatever in my mind that Dr. Bunche is one of the vary few oututarld;ng experts in this field in the United atates and that no luQuld be a worthy and effective repro- sentative of thfr.

AmgthuirL2.Q.theAtigt-LxrturgaijiLletriga: It is reasona to assume that American Lnterest in coloLial areas, and es-cecially Africa, will be projected into the post-war lwriod. It has been amply demonstrated that the political ;? ?;.? 101 f.4t1 Eind economic disposition of such arels has an intimate connection with the maintenance of world peace and economic vtability. The war h8s projected ur into these areas in n very greet and reponsihle way. We are now, aloha no doubt will continue to be, urgently concerned with the political, and economic affairs of Africa. Through our many agencies, military and civilian, we have engaged in arrangements Which iii have a very salient effect on the political Ind economic future of the territories of Africa. It seems scarcely tenable that having got ourselves so involved in slrice, in both civilian and military operations, we will out when the shooting stops with no continuing sense of re onsibility for the future of tbe continent.

From personal contact I gather that not very much on Africa ia now being undertaken in that unit. TWO or three months ago I was called to the Political Studies subdivision for an interview designed to sound me out on the nosaibility of transferring to that agency for the purpose of working OA a "colonial charter" in the post-war world. At that tiJe (and I believe now), only Benjamin Gerig was working on-Africa, and though he is a reputable authority on the subject of the legAl status and operation of the mandates he has little knowm lodge of the actual problems and conditions of Africa. At the IR internationd conference in Deaomer at Mont Tremblant, the large American aolegatinn, including important ,tate Department representativea, made a rather pitiful allowing rtal repeat to faetual data on the oolonial rob Oss of ths Pacific.

There are no organ#,tions in this country undertaking the sort of work done by such privatit and semi-governmental agennies as Chatham House, the Nuffield Research Group, the Fabian Bureau, the Colonial Advisory Gom.? mittee and the Anti-Slavery and Aborigines Protection Society in Britain. These groups have been working feverishly for the past several years and have amassed a great wealth of material bearing upon the postwar problems of Afrioa and other colonial territories. In sum, et this late stage in the game the United States is illw.prepRred to cross swords with Britain and the colonial nations of Europe on oc%lonial problems and planning. 3. Itiactsmia: It would be possible for one who knows his way around in Britain and who is familiar with the African scene', to obtain, within a couple of months or so, a vast amount of information from British agencies on their planning with xespect to Africa and other colonial areas.

It would be possible, if cover is thought necessary, to send the rep- resentative over under the auspices of the Phelps-Stokes Fund, which ie the only American private agency which has had a long- established interest in Africa and which is highly respected in British colonial circles. The recent report of the Phelps- Stokes Auld on "Africa and the Ailantio Charter from an American Standpoint" received an excellent press in Britain and through- out the Empire. The present disposition of the British Government, as re ently enunciated by Col. Stanley, Minister of State for the Colones, is to recognize an international responsibility for CAI future of colonial areas and peoples. The present would seem the logical time to undertake a project of the nature herein suggested. The information obtained would be of value to both VII military and civilian branches of our Government. ?

TIM .10413tICAlt 20 Atli $o ? fill dear Generals Having been hers for approximately a month, I have been 014 to gat a clearer picture of the needs of the Amerioan Milithit and of my own office, partioularly with respect to intelligence, and acaordintlor have made certain adjustments folithe time hofng in the duties performed by Major Z. T. Patterson, U.S.M.O., and 4Japtain ti P. Querowa, LOA., of your office, of which Ifeel you should be apprised. It has seemed appropriate to me to differentiate be" twuen strategio intelligence and operational intelligenee. If the American Mission were a naval oommand, I should define the latter is combat intelligence. On the reoommendation of the Mission which I headed here last winter, the War and Navy Departments respectivelli had stationed Military and Naval Obeervere at Dakar and I have as* aped the duties of etrategic intelligence to these ?Moonily,* based on' their familiarity with conditiono hero and the general nature of ths intelligenon desired by the War and Navy Departments. I have assigned operational intelligence dutiee to Major Pattorsoh and Captain Quorum and I feel sure that their O3.8. tritining will have made the assignment particularly appropriate. Also for the time being, because of the delicate nature of the politiaal situation here and the smart? objectives of the Imorican Mission, it haa ademed desirable that none of my intelliT Kano, staff operate "under cover" or use under-oover agente, and- E have inortruated Major Petterczn and Captain Quereamaccordingir? Because Major Patterson and Captain Quorum Are in uniform anti aro generally known to be intelligence officers, it sould be very difflorat for them, in my opinion' to maintain the seoroo7 of WI umder-,Noover oporatione whiCh twilight attempt" partterularlg because. of the highly offiaiontA,OgY, Smite heves But pefhap more important ream, 4.that we are Ole to 4ve At our onliandi the service* of the SureOcitalelf to porter* any rem- tiered oiderweover investigation,* (*AO.

Thi will be done for two reasons: to getAnto the hands of the British a man who will spill the beans to such an extent that it will be possible to demand Campini s recall; and to get up the wind of the Italians. The actual removal will be done without London's permission, although it is anticipated that London will be pleased with the results. b) About May 15, it is planned to have enough of the crew of GEBUSkLEMME lined up to make it feasible to blow her up* Careful consideration decided against any attempt to take her away, because of her very awkward position way dawn the bay, and because at least two tugs?with the attendant difficulties of having them manouevre the ship unobserved?would be necessary. This, too, will be presented as a fait accompli. c) AI-out the end of May, the Italians will blow up thp Stefani Agency, in the name of Free Italy, demonstrate before the Consulate, and generally raise as much hell as they can be ipduced to stir up. (This business of getting the Ltalians going will cost some money, since the Consulate is their sole means of support; hence my request for more-- assuming that it is proper for me to bear a share). d) About the middle of June, other things being equal, pr, Wertz will be taken away--if possible, by Italian hands. The point of all of this, apart from whatever useft41 information may come out of it, is to demoralize the Axis community entirely., .?47,11 , t Declassified and Approved For Release 2013/09/24: CIA-RDP13X00001R000100330005-3 FitPAUL Declassified and Approved For Release 2013/09/24: CIA-RDP13X00001R000100330005-3 - 4" r r4- RVICES Africa Section SUBJECT British- American Relations in west Africa W-137 In accordance with the reqaest of the British Empire Section regarding material critical of our allies, the foiloving information is being sent only to you and to the two others whose names appear abovel On April 13th source was invited by Ur.

When source ca ually remarked that they oould put it on Lend-Lease, Mi. Jones did not consider it a joke4 Source wan surprised at this, because in previous conversations mith the British a casual remark about Lend- lease was definitely considered as an amusing by-play. Mr. 'tones said that he did not believe that the Americcno would be milling to give up their footholds, such es the Acora Airport, after the war. When source suvested that Mr. Stettinius had done a great job in ex- plaining to Congress how Lend-Lease worked in reverse and that 'what we owe the British is inoaloulable, Mr. onee said in a very bitter tome, nes, I know Mr. Stettinius; he's the brother of the head of Pari American and Pan American expects to spread all over the globe." When source corrected him by saying, "Mr. Trippe is the brother-in- law of gr. 3tettiniva,nhe answered, "That makes littlp differenoe." ourco was disturbed not so much by the statements as by the totv in which they were made.
