The Ambassador in Japan ( Grew ) to the Secretary of State

176. Department’s telegram No. 89, April 8, 3 [1] p.m., deferred dollar remittances of American President Lines. After consultation with the company’s representative we find total awaiting remittance is approximately 390,000 yen. This has been partly covered by permits through June. Accordingly representations were made orally yesterday with a view to expediting pending and future remittances.
