Dean Acheson

PAPERS OF DEAN ACHESON
Memoranda of Conversations Index, 1949-1953

The Memoranda of Conversations series is located in the Papers of Dean Acheson at the Harry S. Truman Library. The memoranda in this series, which are arranged in chronological order, document the discussions at many of the official meetings attended by Acheson during his service as Secretary of State, 1949-53. Such memoranda were customarily prepared for administrative purposes and for the historical record in connection with meetings and conferences attended by Department of State officials, including meetings between Department of State officials and officials of other Government agencies and between Department of State officials and officials of foreign governments, as well as meetings with private groups. Generally prepared by a Department of State official who had attended the meetings, they are summaries rather than transcripts of the proceedings. Many of these memoranda are reproduced in the Department of State's published "Foreign Relations of the United States" series.
