Memorandum, State Department Summary of Telegrams

DEPARTMENT OF STATE devits OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY WASHLNGTON July 30, 1946 SUMMARY OF TELEGRAMS UNITED Gromyko has made clear to Johnson that Soviet support of 210 - NATIONS Albania and Outer Mongolia for membership in the United Nations may go to the point of insisting on their admission as a condition for admitting western European states whose claims to membership not even he would question. 051 - AUSTRIA We are considering the establishment of full US diplomatic relations with Austria under the terms of the new control agreement. 051- the BULGARIA Barnes recommends that we inform the Bulgarians we will sign a peace treaty with them only after their present government is reorganized on a sufficiently broad basis to assume the obligation to carry out the treaty in the name of the whole Bulgarian people. 051 - GERMANY Murphy reports that while ACC Germany has been considering uniform property treatment policies for all Germany, Soviet authorities have carried out land and industry reforms in their zone to such an extent that private property in the American sense may be said to be non- existent in industry and commerce. He predicts that the Soviet zone social revolution will probably not go any farther in the next year but that after a period of consolidation and economic revival, the collectivization of agriculture and the socialization of remaining small businesses may be under- taken. Meanwhile, he concludes, the Communist offensive against western Germany will be the main task. 051- GREECE The Greek Communist Party leader has asked us to examine the situation in his country which he alleges has almost reached the stage of civil war because of the present government's policy of supporting by force its political purpose to bring back the King. Ambassador MacVeagh comments that government measures for "law and order" are now in the hands of unscrupulous reactionaries with restoration aims but that the present control by the pro-royalist government is largely due to a countrywide reaction against past Communist excesses.
