Dulles informs Department that understanding with regard to Committee to Coordinate the interpretation and execution of the clauses of the Treaty with Germany was that it should be composed of the diplomatic representatives in Paris and should have its headquarters there. Is this your understanding? If this was the agreement, of course we will act accordingly. What will be required in the way of assistants and clerical force?
