Editorial Note
In furtherance of the policy set forth in the April 13, 1950, circular airgram (page 6), to broaden the scope and extent of regular consultations with other governments on matters coming before the United Nations and particularly before the General Assembly, the Department of State dispatched several communications (circular airgrams) to the field in August and September. The two basic circulars were those of August 4 and August 22, which are printed below. Many of the subjects are documented in substantive chapters which appear elsewhere in this volume or in the regional volumes of this series.
