FURTHER ACTION.

For Mr. Seel's signature

June, 1947.

!

We discussed with Young on Monday the

final draft of our Constitution despatch,

a copy of which was sent to you in Mayle's

letter of the 18th June. As a result of

that discussion we have proposed several

amendments to the draft, and I am sending

you the enclosed copy of the revised version

Core that we have now submitted to higher

authority here. The further amendments are

sidelined in this draft. I am also sending

you a copy of a letter I have sent to

Young which will explain the reasons for

the amendments now proposed.

I showed Young a copy of your letter

to Mayle of the 20th June, commenting on

paragraph 3(a) of the original draft. He was

in entire agreement with your views on this

question, but is prepared to accept the

paragraph as it now stands in the revised

draft. I hope you will find it satisfactory

as well.

We will let you know if any substantial

alterations are made to the present version

of
