The Chargé in France (Shaw) to the Secretary of State

[Paraphrase]

774. From Ambassador Dawes: Sze confidentially informs me that at this afternoon’s Council meeting he will propose a neutral and [Page 515] nonpartisan commission. He has attempted to frame this proposition so as to cause no immediate break.

Referring to my 773, November 21, 3 p.m.,66 giving Sweetser’s report of the meeting yesterday, I have not made any commitments concerning American membership on any body to be appointed and have said that the United States would make a decision in this connection when the occasion so required.
