The Secretary of State to the Minister in China (MacMurray)
Washington, October 26,
1928—4 p.m.
359. Your 748, October 5, 5 p.m. I have been willing to accede to your recommendation not to force the issue: Nevertheless you are referred to the series of previous instructions and I wish to know whether return of consular officers to Nanking may be expected soon. I consider the presence of an American official at the seat of government very desirable.
