Representatives of the British, American and Russian Governments here were reported today to have reached an agreement on the general lines of a joint Allied statement which will be issued soon condemning the Nazi atrocities against Jews and outlining the special measures which have been decided upon to halt the mass-killing of the Jewish population in Nazi-held territories.
The statement has already been approved by the United States Government and the British Cabinet, well-informed circles stated today. A reply is awaited from Moscow before issuing the statement.
