The Acting Secretary of State to the Ambassador in France (Edge)
Washington, June 28, 1931—6
p.m.
303. My 300, June 28, 1 p.m. Your 370, June 28, 2 p.m. This information makes it essential that you would immediately transmit to the French Government the statement in paragraph 1 of my 300 of this morning. You should make it quite clear that this Government does not propose to have its very generous proposal, made for the benefit of the whole world, used as a lever on the part of any nation to obtain political concessions for [from?] any other nation.
