Sir,
With reference to your despatch No.929
on 33740 of 13th August, 1934 enclosing the reply of the
34
United States Government to the enquiry addressed
to them by His Majesty's Government regarding
the export of arms to China, I have the honour
to inform you that the Counsellor to the French
Embassy called here in this connexion on the
12th February. He informed Sir Victor Wellesley
that the French Government had, subsequent to
the enquiry undertaken by His Majesty's
Government in August, 1934, themselves enquired
of eight Governments as to their attitude. All
the replies which they had received appeared to
be satisfactory with the exception of the
Japanese reply. In view of M. Cambon's enquiry
it seems to me appropriate that the French and
United States Governments should now be informed
of the position as it appears to His Majesty's
Government.
