436. Letter 28 from Clough to Johnson¹

Letter No. 28

Washington, January 9, 1956

Dear Alex:

During the recess period we received a number of communications from the British concerning O’Neill’s activities in Peiping. I am enclosing copies of those which I think you have not yet seen. Unfortunately they are not numbered in any way so there may be one or two missing. However, I believe you have received all important documents.

We are in the process of numbering all documents received from the British concerning O’Neill’s work and we hope to maintain this file on a more systematic basis henceforth.

Sincerely yours,

Ralph N. Clough
Deputy Director for Chinese Affairs

Enclosures:

Memoranda dated 12/22, 12/29, 12/30, 12/31, and 1/5/56 from British Embassy.
