DEPARTMENT OF STATE OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY WASHINGTON April 30, 1947 SUMMARY OF TELEGRAMS RUMANIA Our Mission in Bucharest reports that all factions agree that the adjournment of the CFM without agree- ment on an Austrian peace treaty makes inevitable the presence of Soviet troops in Rumania for at least another year. As a result the opposition groups are more depressed than at any time in the last two years while the Communists within the Groza Government are jubilant. HUNGARY The Soviet Government has recently demanded payment by Hungary within the present year of various loans total- ing over three million US dollars made by the USSR in 1945. Our Legation suggests that this and other recent Soviet demands suggest an effort to transform minority Soviet bank holdings into majority control by forcing the sale of the Hungarian held shares. FRANCE Ambassador Caffery reports that there is now less possi- bility of an immediate political crisis in France. The political thermometer dropped over the past weekend largely because no single party wishes to take the responsibility for starting a crisis the outcome of which cannot be foreseen. PARAGUAY Our Charge in Rio has been informed by the Brazilian Foreign Office that Paraguay has agreed to accept medi- ation of its civil war and that rebel leaders are now being contacted to ascertain whether they will accept mediation. DECLASSIFIED E.O. 12065, Sec. 3-402 State Dept. Guideline, June 12, 1979 By NLT- He NARS, Date 11-12-to
