192. Department’s No. 93, June 6, 4 p.m. As reported in my despatch 731 of June 4, I proposed the corn marketing discussion to the Foreign Minister³⁰ on June 1. He appeared interested and promised to give me a reply shortly which, however, has not been received to date. On June 3, the Under Secretary of Foreign Affairs also expressed interest and inquired where it was proposed to hold the discussions, implying that his Government might be disposed to have them in Washington. I shall telegraph further developments.
