priority
1106. For Hickerson. Romulo telephoned this morning and in course conversation on another subject, separately reported, said Ambassador Tsiang had called on him last Saturday. Romulo said Tsiang talked to him about “the proposal they are to make”. Romulo said he wanted to know what our reactions are so that he would “know how to advise” Tsiang. Went on to say that “at first blush the proposal looked very dangerous”. He added “All the other side has to do is to read the White Paper and make it part of the record of the GA”.
I told Romulo I would get in touch with him.
