- 1.
- Conference with interested colleagues today resulted in personal agreement upon a considerable number of amendments to the text of draft note all of which are matters of mere form. I shall give these amendments in a separate telegram.25
- 2.
- Belgian, British and Dutch representatives were prepared to send amended note without further instructions. Japanese Minister must first communicate amended text to his Government which will doubtless approve, as it has accepted the draft in principle.
- 3.
- French, Italian and Portuguese representatives have received no instructions whatever with respect to our draft. I suggest that urgent representations be made to the Governments in question to hasten instructions.
MacMurray
