The Department of State to the British Embassy
Memorandum of Conversation With Mr. Mallet, British Chargé d’Affaires, October 19, 1937
In discussing with Mr. Mallet the aide-mémoire of October 18th, which the British Chargé d’Affaires had been good enough to bring to the attention of the Government of the United States concerning a further meeting of the Advisory Committee, Mr. Wilson stated that, since the Government of the United States was not a member of the League of Nations, it had refrained scrupulously at any time from endeavoring to influence League bodies in such action as they might choose to adopt. It is to be remembered that the American representative sitting on the Advisory Committee does so without the right to vote.
