320. It has been announced here that Executive Yuan has named Dr. K. C. Wu, political Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs, to be Acting Foreign Minister during the absence of Soong. Wu tells me confidentially, however, that there will be no real change in his status and that he has to refer all except routine matters for the instructions of the Generalissimo.
