The Secretary of State to the Chinese Minister of Finance (Kung)
Washington, February 17,
1942.
My Dear Dr. Kung: I much appreciate your kind letter of January 14, 1942, which was left at the Department for me by Mr. Manuel Fox, and the generous personal comments you make therein.
I share your conviction that the traditional friendship of the United States and China now rests upon more solid and enduring foundations than ever before, and it is gratifying to know that we are associated with you and the other leaders of China in the common struggle for the preservation and victory of democracy.
With kindest regards [etc.]
Cordell Hull
