Geneva, August 11, 1955, 10 a.m.

401. From Johnson.

Briefed all members congressional group except Hinshaw yesterday in very broad terms including representation issue. No mention made and no question raised concerning any specific third countries. Only reaction on representation was “why not?”. Some concern over slowness talks which spontaneously ascribed Chinese. I said thought no particular significance except narrowness Wang’s instructions and slowness his communications.

Gowen
