26. For the Under Secretary from Fenwick. Neutrality Committee now organized plans prompt decisions on concrete problems as per memorandum already in your hands also special questions submitted by Uruguay and other governments. Attempt will also be made to codify law of neutrality but this less urgent. Believe it possible to make recommendations on immediate problems within 3 weeks. Will forward preliminary recommendations on specific points within a few days. [Fenwick.]
