594. Referring to my telegram No. 569, July 25, 6 p.m., second paragraph.

1. I have now received from Wang the following document:

“The Nationalist Government of the Republic of China, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Nanking, July 25, 1928.

Minister John Van A. MacMurray, The United States Legation, Peiping.

Dear Mr.: This is to certify that Mr. T. V. Soong has been fully authorized to sign any document with you in behalf of the Nationalist Government.

Yours very sincerely, Signed (C?) T. Wang, Minister of Foreign Affairs.”

2. Do you consider this document sufficient or should I ask Wang for more formal credentials in the name of the Government Council of the Nationalist Government?

MacMurray
