4702. War Trade Board [from McFadden]:
No. 327. Have submitted subject your No. 223, August 1, to Inter-Allied Black Listing Committee, Paris. French, realizing the political importance, assented to the inclusion of a Japanese delegate on the Paris, London, and Washington committee, but believe Japan should agree (1) to make her regulations governing commerce with the enemy in accord with those of the other Associated Governments, and (2) to adopt the enemy trading lists of the Associated Governments, in so far as possible. British and Italian delegates, Paris committee, are submitting question to their respective governments with favorable recommendation. We will advise you, as soon as we hear from them. McFadden.
