SECRET M-7 DOCUMENT B a EXTRACT Minutes of the Twenty-Third Meeting, Second Part, June 20, 1949, 4:30 p.m., Mr . Bevin presiding (USDEL (49) (P) 23rd Meeting, Second Part) Japanese Treaty MR. VYSHINSKY raised the question of the date on which the Japanese Treaty would be discussed by the CFM, with China participating. Mr. Bevin had stated on May 23 that he desired to consult his Government on the question. Mr. Acheson had said that it would depend to some extent upon how much progress had been made at this Session. While the Council had not settled the basic questions regard- ing Germany, it had decided on a number of other questions. Mr Vyshinsky, therefore, thought that it was appropriate to discuss the date for a CFM on Japan. MR. BEVIN stated that the UK was not in a position to agree upon a date for CFM discussion of Japan. MR. ACHESON read a statement 1 outlining the U.S position on this question, in which he Treferred to the US proposal of 1947, M. SCHUMAN remarked that France had accepted the proposal of the United States to entrust the Far-Eastern Commission with the task of preparing the Japanese Treaty. France continued to hold this view. As far as the question of a date was concerned, it should be taken up through diplomatic channels. MR. BEVIN repeated that the UK had not changed its position on this question and therefore had not come to any conclusion concerning the date of a CFM regarding Japan. Jon nit ¹See Annex 1, p. M-11.
