Your memorandum of the 1st of April, 1946, to His Excellency, The Generalissimo, regarding formally notifying the Soviet government on the entering of the Executive Sub-committee into the Northeast and their mission to carry out the Cease Fire Order was handed to this Board with the instruction that the matter be attended to by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs jointly with this Board.
Whereas [notice of] the entry of the said Sub-committee into the Northeast and their mission therein have already been given by General Tung Nien-ping, Chief of our military representatives in the Northeast, to Gen. Malinovsky, the Russian Commander; and whereas the Soviet Embassy has also been reminded verbally by the said ministry, we are sending you this reply for your reference.
Minister,
Board of Military Operations
