I am at complete loss to understand basis of Agence France press despatch reported DEPTEL 700 June 16 repeated Shanghai 1204 , Canton 337. I han meeting in Shangha1 with about eight representatives US press. My remarks were entirely off the record, for background only, and I have full confidence their respect my wishes. I its not see representative AFP during Shanghai 10journ. It is true I saw group former students Yenching Fl but I made no statement and spoke to them individ- SE ually only about their personal affairs, problems, keeping conversation entirely on social, personal level. Chinese and American Christian missionaries I spoke to in same vein. I was particularly careful this trip Shanghai to say nothing which might be re- ported, misconstrued by International Press.
