THE PLANNERS OF VICTORY GIVE US A SMILE

FIRST pictures of the meeting in Teheran of the leaders of Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union were received in London last night by special aeroplane.

It was the first time Marshal Stalin, President Roosevelt and Mr. Churchill had met together and the first personal meeting of Stalin and the President. The picture below was taken at the Soviet Legation in Teheran. Stalin, wearing his Marshal’s uniform, and the President are in specially good humour. Mr. Churchill, whose smile is more restrained, is in the uniform of a Commodore of the R.A.F.

Other pictures of the leaders with their staffs and a 69th birthday party for Mr. Churchill are on the Back Page.
