DEPARTMENT OF STATE
OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY
WASHINGTON
February 26, 1947
SUMMARY OF TELLEGRAMS
COUNCIL OF
General Clark reports that all the Deputies for
FOREIGN MINISTERS
the Austrian Treaty agree that occupation troops
will be withdrawn from Austria within 90 days
from the coming into force of the Austrian treaty.
CHINA
Several representatives of third party groups in
China have informed Ambassador Stuart that China's
situation is deteriorating with great rapidity and point out that this
is disadvantageous to the US because the people to whom General
Marshall's statement was directed will inevitably be driven, as the end
result of the situation, into the Communist camp. Embassy Nanking re-
ports that the National Government's pressing needs for money and ammu-
nitions from the US have been brought to the Embassy's attention by
numerous persons.
FRANCE
We are informing the French that we insist upon
the immediate initiation in actual operation of
a phased and orderly program for the repatriation of German prisoners
of war captured by our forces.
GREECE
Embassy Moscow believes the presence of British
troops in Greece is the only reason why Greece has
not already been forced into the Soviet camp. Embassy London states
that in the light of Britain's over-extended foreign position and its
serious financial plight, plus the criticism of Labor Party"rebels"
and certain Cabinet members for bolstering the Greek regime, there is
no reason to doubt the sincerity of the British notes sent to us indi-
cating that British military and financial contributions in Greece and
Turkey must be limited.
INDIA
Our representative in New Delhi reports there are
no indications as yet that the "shock treatment"
of the British statement on withdrawal from India will drive the Moslem
League and the Congress Party into each others arms.
