Memorandum by the Under Secretary of State (Phillips)

[Washington,] December 10, 1934.

The Chinese Minister handed me the enclosed cablegram³⁵ which he had just received from his Government; he said he had instructions to present it informally and was, therefore, not making any written communication other than to hand the text of the cablegram to me; he would appreciate very much a reply as soon as possible. I assured the Minister that we would take up the matter at once with the Treasury Department.
