The Acting Secretary of State to the Minister in Switzerland (Wilson)
92. Your 106, August 17, 10 a.m., and Gilbert’s 100, August 14, 6 p.m. The Department is particularly interested in information regarding the following points, but does not desire to approach the League of Nations at this time with a suggestion respecting procedure:
In order not to delay indefinitely consideration of the experts’ report and recommendations (by technical or general objections, for example, similar to those stated by Sottile in his letter of August 13),51 the Department feels it would be highly desirable that a specific date be fixed for the next meeting of the International Committee. Does such action seem to be imminent?
Is it anticipated that the question of Liberia will in any way come before the League Council during the forthcoming session?
