The British Ambassador (Reading) to the Acting Secretary of State

No. 295

Memorandum

His Britannic Majesty’s Ambassador presents his compliments to the Acting Secretary of State and has the honour to inform him, with reference to the memorandum from the State Department of March 26th, that His Majesty’s Government have telegraphed to their representative in Pekin informing them that it has been decided to drop the whole question of allowing Chinese Bolshevists to return to China, as this proposal seems to have found little favour on the part of the Governments who have been consulted.
