The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in the Soviet Union (Harriman)

2220. Reference your 3364 of September 7. The extent to which the Department wishes to insist on the Soviet Government’s agreement to the Department’s Aide-Mémoire of July 6 is still under consideration. The Department suggests, therefore, that if you feel it desirable, you inquire of the Soviet Government, without discussing the contents of the Aide-Mémoire, when a reply may be expected.
