FROM FED
TOKYO TELNO 49 AND SEOUL TELNO 14 (NOT TO ALL):
VISIT BY SECRETARY OF STATE
1. We have looked again at the whole plan in the
light of your TURS and other engagements here.
One new
factor, for your own information only, is the thought
that the Hong Kong negotiations might by mid-April have
reached a point where a visit by the Secretary of State
to Peking could be advantageous.
2. The Secretary of State has therefore agreed that we
should now consider the period 22 to 30 April for the
Far Eastern tour. As no decision on a Peking visit can
be taken yet we would envisage the tour starting in
Seoul or Tokyo. Peking might be better after Hong Kong
