Editorial Note
In his telegram 519, March 7, from Berlin, not printed, Acting Political Adviser for Germany Chase reported that the Praha Declaration of the Polish, Czechoslovak and Yugoslav Foreign Ministers (see footnote 1 to telegram 158, February 18, from Praha, page 339) had been considered at the 152nd Meeting of the Coordinating Committee of the Allied Control Authority for Germany on March 6. The United States, British, and French representatives declined to discuss the Declaration. The Soviet representative, after recapitulating the charges contained in the Declaration, demanded that it be considered by the Allied Control Council (740.00119 Control (Germany)/3–748). The Declaration was subsequently discussed by the Allied Control Council at its 82nd Meeting on March 20. For a report on that meeting, see telegram 651, March 20, from Berlin, page 883.
