DEPARTMENT OF STATE OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY WASHINGTON August 12, 1947 SUMMARY OF TELEGRAMS UNITED Bevin has agreed to the mechanics of our proposal for KINGDOM holding tripartite talks with the French on the German level of industry provided these discussions are on an informal and noncommittal basis and no implication is given the French that they have the power of veto. He has also agreed that the official US-UK talks on the British economic position be held in Washington. KOREA Embassy Moscow has been instructed to deliver a personal letter from Secretary Marshall to Molotov expressing our concern over the prolonged deadlock of the Joint US-USSR Com- mission in Korea and pointing out that Molotov previously agreed on the basic principles for consultation over which the Commission is now deadlocked. The letter expresses the desire that the Commission report to the US and Soviet governments by August 21 on the status of its deliberations so that further consideration can be given to any steps necessary to carry out the Moscow Agreement on Korea. INDOCHINA There is general disagreement within the French Gov- ernment over the line of policy to be followed in Indochina. As a result the important policy speech by the French High Commissioner in Saigon, scheduled for August 15th, has been postponed pending further clarification from Paris on the text.
