The Secretary of State to the Minister in Switzerland (Wilson)
152. Your 250, May 14, 7 p.m., and previous. Department considers that course suggested in its mail instruction of April 24, 1934, is preferable to direct relations between interested postal administrations. We do not, however, consider it expedient to take a position of leadership or to raise an issue in this matter. The Department therefore desires that, unless opposition develops to the draft proposal (in which case you should bear in mind the Department’s instruction of April 24), you offer no comment other than, if invited to comment, to state, in your discretion, that, provided the procedure outlined in paragraph (2) subsection (c) of the proposal is ensured, your Government is not disposed to object.
