1254. As of interest in connection with our reports in regard to the Kuomintang-Communist situation, we are reliably informed by a Chinese official that Dr. T. V. Soong has telegraphed here saying that officials of the American Government had asked him about Kuomintang-Communist relations and had expressed to him the opinion that an open clash would be seriously regarded in the United States and should be avoided.6
