The Secretary of State to the Chargé in China (Perkins)
Washington, December 31, 1929—3
p.m.
437. Your 1202, December 30, 10 a.m. The Department has not been informed that the Chinese Government will take the extreme step of withdrawing Chinese judicial officers from the Provisional Court before provision has been made for another court. If such action seems to be contemplated by the Chinese Government, the Department suggests that the Legations concerned propose to the Chinese Government the continuation of the Provisional Court until the negotiations for a new court have reached a satisfactory conclusion.
