TUE 18 JUN 1940
Secretary of State Hull directs Deputy U.S. Ambassador to France Anthony J. DrexelBiddle, Jr., to inform the French government that if France fails to keep its fleet out of German hands, France would "permanently lose the friendship and goodwill of the Government of the United States." Although those sentiments "deeply pained" the French, Minister for Foreign Affairs Baudouin reiterates that the French fleet "would never be surrendered to Germany."
U.S. Minister in Uruguay Edwin C. Wilson reports that Uruguayan government has arrested eight Nazi leaders and that Uruguay's Chamber of Deputies, in secret session the day before, has begun considering a report on Nazi activities in their country.
