The Ambassador in China (Gauss) to the Secretary of State

380. Reference my 372, August 30, 2 p.m. in response to Department’s 205 of August 26, 6 p.m. with regard to the Burma Road. I have received a letter from the Foreign Minister which reads as follows:

“The Generalissimo wishes me to inform you that he appreciates and accepts the suggestions made recently by Mr. Currie through you relative to the improvement of the Burma Road and that the competent authorities have been instructed strictly to act accordingly.

I should be grateful if you would be good enough to transmit the above to Mr. Currie.”
