The Acting Secretary of State to the Ambassador in Great Britain (Davis)
Washington, December
30, 1920—7 p.m.
1270. Your 1738, December 28, 2 p.m.
You may inform British Foreign Office that this Government believes that no good purpose will be served by further delay in communicating the complete texts of Consortium Agreement and Resolutions of October 15th to the Chinese Government. On the contrary it feels that the sooner communication is made the better as it believes that only by entire frankness can the present atmosphere of distrust be dispelled.
Davis
