(gines) a 176 June 4, 1952 . ARCHIVES "NATIONAL BERVICE" RECORDS AND s/s Yesterday the Secretary had a meeting with Mr. Bruce, Mr. Perkins, Mr. Fisher and others regarding the Moroccan case which Mr. Fisher is handling at the Hague Court. The meeting resulted in a tentative conclusion that there was nothing that could be done to recall a U.S. brief which has been printed and distributed. It was decided that Mr. Fisher should make an opening statement along the lines of that shown to the Secretary. It was also decided that he could correct certain errors in the brief in his verbal presentation. Later in the day the Secretary expressed his concern to me about this whole matter and his fear that we would end up by undoing at the Hague what we had achieved in Paris. He asked me to see ifat Mr. Jessup, who was present during the discussions in Paris, had any further or different ideas of action which we could take. Mr. Jessup would like to get the pertinent papers pulled together for him on this problem. They are the brief which Mr. Fisher filed, a copy of the opening statement which Mr. Fisher is to make, a copy of the protest which Ambassador Bonnet has made (I believe this is included in a memorandum of conversation with Mr. Bruce), plus any other relevant material. Mr. Jessup has asked that the Secretariat get this stuff together for him. Can this be done as quickly as possible so that Mr. Jessup will have a change to look over the material. Mr. Fisher has been told to stand by at the Hague from a week from Monday on. This does not allow much time and if Mr. Jessup has any further suggestions, we will have to move fairly rapidly.
