CHINA: SECRETARY OF STATE'S INTERVIEW FOR "TODAY"

1.

I attach a copy of the transcript.

You kindly undertook to consider a few days before

1 October whether anything had happened in the meanwhile

to justify suggesting to the BBC that any particular

passage should be omitted.

2.

I shall be in New York. Please give

your advice to Mr Baxter of News Department.

3.

I am copying this minute and enclosure

to Mr Richards in Peking. I hope that I can leave it

to you to keep them in touch hereafter.
