This story I have covered in a previout OOMINUA104010ft. Istria* it
to any, Sweden was whole.heartedly sympathetio with Finland, but the
majority of thoee native in rinnish relief were also anti-Nasii
Sweden were 'swore of (Jemmy's' ireperatione to invade Mayo. They
warned the Norwegians but their wArniAgs were ignored. A wave of
sympathy swept the country. At the *Me time, Swedes were
eubjented to extraordinary preseure by the (Airman, at exectly the
time thet they beonme oonvinced of Zritain'e unwilling/1m or
inability to render adequate assistance to Norway. As I reported
onzlier, on the 1041104 of Oeheaan's memorandum, the Modes protest
that they iscoepted (*rnany'crnInIe demoode for the transit of
Ktroops on leave", one aotivilrasion from Vorway to riannd, and
defense materials (ammunition, Pants, trucks, busee, building
tutorials and maohines for torLificationo, cot this traffic I
hnve fully reported, 1 have not reported on the resotions of the
Swedish pros() and pol1tic*1 groups, einoe these were presumably
covered by the OW! And the Legmtion. Kowever, these matters will
be reported on later. As Sweden's Webs*s booms stronger, her
oonfidenos grew nnd the vopulne'prtitette beomme more vigorous.
Melly, in the Spring of 1943 the decision was made to stop Ote troop
transit and to diminish the goods traffic At the eametime (master
of 1.943) the Swedieh government ?hanged the tone of its communisations
to 3erlin. Theee followed protests over Cho shooting down of the
Drip n end the Glalta, the oinking of the Am the firing upon of
rokon and In-iinking of fishing boats. Oertnin rikedsgsmen sued
journals sharply orqacieed the lAteltad affair and the Nook
Order., as well ne the loos imitnting eucceeeort to these sp Wes.
Tri protest Against the deportation of the Oslo students wao, it is
true, damped down; but the inoreased assistanoe given to Danish (after
Auguet) and Norwegian rofogees und the courtesies shown escaped
prisoner's from Oermany c.r thu OormAn-onoupitd uountriee, as well as
interned Allied aviatore, nhoe d thnt ths government was reopohding
to a more artioulate pro-Allied public opinion.
Zarly in 1944, I would NAY thnt 90% of the Swedish people believe
in and desire Allied victory. Ten per cent still think thwt 06111111017
Will not be defeated . not the noGotivenese of the expromoion. They
believe that Ocomany wii.1 fight the Allies to a etandetill, that both
sides will be so exhAttoted tiwbt their leaders will agree to A
negotiated penoe. The wettish intelligenoe survioe naturolly reports
from London that varioue otnles here consider the demand for
" unuonditional uorronaer" ..,rnpramtioal az%e. even childish. To SOWS
extent this reaution even reaches elements in Sweden which nre pro.411y.
Ho-to general ie tho belief thi4 Or Allies could win if they oho,* to
destroy Germany but will ;sot extend themeelves to the limit since to do
so might mates Cermu,ny to yield to ;unveils in desperation - or that they
will not extend theimeelveo for an entirely opyosite reaeon, nemelr
that Romaii will threaten to pull out and conclude it ooparate peace
with Oermany in order to ooniSetve her own strength. Those who hold
to thio view know what the Teheran conference was supposed to have
settlud . they AVO not dispoeed to regard the Teheriul decision, WI
really binding. About halt the teh per ?felt of Oermanophiles, that
is five per cent, are fanatioally devoted to Germany's onus's. ?hot
aotually believe that darmany will win the war, thAt ehortly Woe*
the end, or immoliately after A truoe, the western 41liet And Nisei&
will be at eaoh othor'e throat, mul that the small million* will be so
greviously disappointea at thrin tveatment by the United Nations Dig
Three that they will be hAppy to torn to Oermany to ohastpien their tight
for restoration. By small notional they mann Italy, ?ranee, Spain,
Portugal and Switeerland, holland, Delgiom, the Balkan, Saltio sat

Report on Return from the Field
I pioked up a large agenda on my summer's trip
through the Mediterranean. It wan made up of a few vary
interesting big things and many rather exasperating small
ones. Since I have taken these all up directly with the
various people who could do something about them, I see
little to be gained by revtewing them in a report. The
other day we were discussing how the Theater Officer fits
and fails to rit Into the OSS scheme. You suggested that
I not down my observations in my report. With your concur-
rence I will devote it exclusively to that subject because
it was the field which gave me an entirely new conception
of it.
It is very pleasant for a Theater Officer to go
to the field because there he is considered quite some
punlkins. Tho Pield looks on him as its representative
plenipotentiary in Washington, With trembling trustfulness
it is ready to put most of its precious fertile eggs in his
basket. It expectr. him to -et results, on high levels and
low, tn Washington. rt doesn't expect an unreasonable
amount because the Pleld no longer builds illusions about
the effectiveness of Washington's exertions. Nevertheless,
Washington is the one place to which it can turn. So it
keeps hopefully asking for help and it expects the Theat.r
Officer, the one man in Washington whose interests purport
to be identioal to Ito own, to draw forth this help whether
it is to come from the lofty realms of the Joint Chiefs or
the menial machinery of the Registry.
And no the Thenter Officer cruises about the
theater gnthertng big problems from little fellows and
little problems from big fellows and once in a great while
vice versa.

SUBBCTI Report in Acoordanoe 'with liners] order Mo. 63.
TO I The Director, Office of Strategic Services, Washington, DC.
(Thra: The Chief of OSS, Cairo.)
PART / - Service with OSS Turkey in Istanbul.
L. my first acquaintance with oSS was in March, 1943, when I met Lanais/
Maolearland. He had just arrived in the Middle East from America onroute to
Turkey to establish an OW Mission in that country. At that time I was Regional
Communications Security Officer for the Directorate of Communications, Amy Air
Force Headquarters, Washington, DC., and was assigned for duty with the 19th
Airways Communications Squadron covering the area from the Persian Gulf to
Tunisia. I had oome to that position via oompetitive examination and appoint-
ment in Washington, and several months of active duty overseas. When Lanning
McFarland learned of my background and training in security he asked me to joist
him in Turkey to serve as his security officer and assistant, for at that ti-
bia only assistant was Mr. Arch Coleman, who had come from America with him to do
SI work. I had always wanted to go to Turkey, so after some weeks consideratisa
I &groecl. to join OSS to handle security and to assist the Chief of Mission, and
application for transfer was made in April, 1943. As transfer oould not be of..
feoted for some weeks, Lanning MacFarland and mr. Colman proceeded to Turkey
and it was understood that I should follow E.s soon as possible after the transfer.
2. Transfer to OSS was a000mplished and orders issued on 14 JUDO 1943,
and I reported for duty with this organisation on 23 Juno 1943. To my surprise
I learned that I had been named a special Funds officer, and as such would be
responsible for the disbursement of and accounting for unvouohored funds. ko
I had had absolutely no training or experience in special Funds this seemed like
too big an order when added to the other duties which I was expected to perform,
but I was assured that it was only a temporary arrangement and that a qualified
Finance Officer was to be sent from Washington. it subsequently developed that
none arrived in Istanbul until August, 1944, some fifteen months after the mission
was established, and that Colonel Rehm, Chief of special Funds, Washinaltea? bed
never been informed that I was to do anything but Special Funds, These drew-
stances he learned of in septembor, 1944.
3. I arrived in Istanbul on 13 July 1943,and was immediately put to mark
to see what could be done with the office facilities and personnel that we hod
on hand. Lanning MacFaeland had first arrived there in May with Mr. Coleman, but
had in the meantime made a round trip to Cairo for conference, and had but resent-
ly again returned to Istanbul. He had therefore only just moved into an offiee
