The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in China (Johnson)
Washington, October
11, 1937—6 p.m.
317. Reference your despatch No. 1348, July 17, 1937, in regard to the vegetable oil monopoly. The Department feels that, in view of the present situation in China, no useful purpose would be served by replying to the Foreign Office’s note at this time.
