The Yugoslav Minister (Pitamic) to the Secretary of State
Aide Memoire
I have the honor to inform Your Excellency that I have received instructions from my Government to inform the Government of the United States, that the Kingdom of Jugoslavia, as one of the countries [Page 412] which signed the Kellogg Pact, associates itself with the intervention of the United States Government, made with a view of stopping the hostilities between the Soviet and Chinese Governments and bringing about a peaceful settlement of the conflict.
My Government, in view of the fact that it is not in diplomatic relations with either the Soviet or the Chinese Governments, begs the United States Government to take steps to make a declaration in the aforesaid sense on its behalf, to these Governments.
