Colonel George V. Underwood to Lieutenant General Alvan C. Gillem, Jr., at Peiping
[
Nanking
,] 13 February 1947.
2071. 13956 refers. Embassy has no objections to a press release by you on or about 20 February announcing that all Communist Party personnel of Executive Headquarters have been returned to Communist areas. Since the return of Communists from Nanking Shanghai and Chungking has not even started, any statement by you should clearly indicate that this applies only to Communist personnel assigned to Executive Headquarters.
