The Secretary of State to the Minister in Switzerland (Wilson), at Geneva
40. Your 67, March 9, 8 p.m. Dr. Yen’s letter was unauthorized and inaccurate. I expressed no opinion to Hawkling Yen and have formulated no plan as to the maintenance of order in the occupied area at the withdrawal of the Japanese troops. This seems to me a matter to be discussed at the conference to be held in Shanghai in pursuance of the Assembly resolution. So far as I know, no one has as yet undertaken to specify what the arrangements must be. You may inform any responsible inquirer of the facts and my views as above.
