174. Your telegram No. 231, June 2, 9 p.m. You may inform Briand orally that the American Government will be pleased to enter into diplomatic conversations with respect to his proposal. It is suggested that at first these conversations be of an informal nature and that they be carried on through the French Ambassador here when he returns to Washington, as you are soon to return to the United States on leave.
