419. ReEmbs 173, January 18. It is assumed that lack of further word concerning proposed second transfer relief supplies Nakhodka results from Japanese delay in replying to Soviet aide-mémoire. Department hopes that Embassy will find it possible to induce Soviet authorities to press for immediate Japanese action on this proposal.
