Comments today’s meeting:
Wang took expected line which fits in with previous pattern and reaffirms my belief they are attempting put selves in position carry out break or indefinite recess within next few meetings.
His statement on public release cultural exchange proposal was somewhat more tentative than previous similar statements but nevertheless consider odds are they will make release before next meeting. Statement will probably follow lines his opening statment this morning and can especially be expected will attempt capitalize on Geneva summit conference exchange proposals. If statement issued plan make no comment here unless it contains new and gross misstatements fact which require immediate correction and I am in Geneva at time.
