Prime Minister to Secretary of State for War and Minister of Works 25 Apr 43

I am informed that arrangements had been made for weekly and week-end courses to be given in Balliol College, Oxford, for Dominion and American troops, where the university atmosphere would be particularly valuable in giving these troops from overseas a further insight into English life and history. I understand that this proposal is in jeopardy because the War Office are proposing to take over Balliol College for a senior officers’ course.

I am sure that Balliol College would be of more value in the former role, and I can hardly believe that no alternative accommodation for the War Office could be found. Let me have a report on some of the alternatives.
