Sir: We acknowledge receipt of your letter of October 8th (FE 893.51/4411)65 enclosing copy of telegram of September 29th from the American Minister at Peking relative to the invitation to the Consortium representatives personally to become advisers to the Financial Readjustment Commission.

You will have observed from the cable of September 28th (4862) received by us from London,65 and of cable 2377 dispatched in reply thereto on [Page 550] October 1st,66 that the Consortium Groups have already expressed approval of the Peking representatives serving on this Commission, even though it be in their individual capacity.

Respectfully,
