Washington, July 12, 1924—3 p.m.

121. Your telegram No. 184, July 11, 9 p.m. You may advise Baron Shidehara that this Government has indicated to China that it sees no occasion for any change in the status of its diplomatic representation to China. You may add that, if the decision of the Japanese Government to appoint an Ambassador is still open to reconsideration, this Government would venture to hope that the question be examined from the viewpoint of the interests of international solidarity in China.

Repeat to Peking as Department’s 152 for information.
