Dear Dean:
The President has carefully read your
memorandum to him with reference to the Wedemeyer Report
on China. I am returning herewith your memorandum
containing the President's approval of your recommendation
that the Wedemeyer Report on China be released as a part
of the State Department's White Paper on United States
policy toward China. You are also authorized to inform
the Senate Subcommittee on Appropriations of the reasons
why the Report was not previously published, and to inform
the Subcommittee that the State Department expects to
release the Report as a part of the White Paper.
The President informs me that he agrees
with you that developments in Shanghai would control the
date of the release of the White Paper. The President asks
that a draft of the White Paper be submitted to him for
approval prior to its release.
Very sincerely yours,
