I asked Mr. Castle about this today. He said
Chinese Minister had made a communication here re- garding points which had been discussed between Doctor Teichman and Hsu enquiring news of United States Government and making suggestions as to procedure.
No reply had yet been made, I said this was no doubt an attempt to retransfer negotiations to Washington. Mr. Castle agreed and said that to do so would be the greatest mistake and he would do all he could to prevent any such action.
