The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in Great Britain (Bingham)
Washington, July
18, 1934—6 p.m.
310. [For Davis.] I certainly had no intention of suggesting that you convey to the British any of the criticisms of the statement which you and Bingham submitted. These were included merely for your own confidential information to show you the possible effects which we feared from the statement.
I am glad that you agree that silence is safer and that you have so informed the British.
Best wishes for a good journey.
