The Chargé in the Soviet Union ( Wiley ) to the Secretary of State

Moscow , April 2, 1935—5 p.m.
[Received April 2—6:50 a.m.]

133. Your 71, March 27, 9 p.m. Saw Litvinov this afternoon. He stated that he would confer with Rosengoltz and give me written reply. He attempted to assume that “vague” assurances would suffice. I insisted that you would expect a definite commitment.
