The Soviet Embassy to the Department of State
Memorandum
The Soviet Government has taken note with satisfaction of the proposal set forth in the Memorandum of the Department of State of March 2865 to the effect that the representatives of the four inviting powers should have prior discussion among themselves of, and should concert, proposals and recommendations which each of them might desire to put forward at the San Francisco Conference. My Government considers that such joint prior discussion and concerting should, in the interests of lasting cooperation among the inviting powers and of the success of the Conference, be extended also to proposals and recommendations put forward at the Conference by any other delegations.
