The United States Political Adviser for Germany (Murphy) to the Secretary of State

898. No action is being taken on Dept’s 736, Oct 25, pending receipt of Dept’s reply to my 838, Oct 25.

Russian and French authorities visited Ministerial Collecting Center on General Clay’s invitation. No similar invitation has been forthcoming from the Russians. So far as is known, no request has been made by American authorities to examine German archives held by Russians. No information has become available as to the nature of any documents that may be held by the Russians or their place of deposit.
