The Nationalist Minister in his second Note also refers to a possible revision of existing treaties. Mr. MACMURRAY replies:-
The United States Governi in full meat and people are sympathy with the desire of the Chinese people to develop a sound national life, of their own and to realise their aspirations for sovereignty as far as possible un- restricted by obligations of au exceptional character,
The American Government entertains the hope that the remedying of the conditions which accessitated the incorporation of such provisions in earlier treaties may from time to time afford opportunities for the revision-in dus form and by mutual consent- of such treaty stipulations as may have become unnecessary or in- appropriate.
**To that end the American Government looks forward to the hope that there may be developed an administration so far repre- sentative of the Chinese people and so far exercising real autho rity as to be capable of assuring the actual fulfilment in good faith of any obligations such as China would have of necessity, for its part, to undertake incidentally 'to the desired readjustment of treaty relations."
