16. Telegram 250 from Geneva1
Geneva, August 2, 1955, 8
p.m.
250. Some correspondents have learned from CHICOM newspaper sources CHICOMS gave me “lists” at this morning’s meeting and will be carrying stories this effect. I have closely questioned them and appears leak probably occurred before Wang had returned from meeting. Correspondents say CHICOM group including press spokesman thus far scrupulously observing secrecy agreement. I have assured correspondents if CHICOMS do not observe I will give them backgrounder. They seem satisfied if not happy.
