.. //?~}u.:,
Mr. Rae informed me on May 28~~
he had again
called on the State Department wh~ad
let him know
what their reaction
was to Mr. ~ 1 s sLtggestions
for the
revision
of the U.S. reply to OLtr note of April 10,
He
told me that the U.S. were impressed by the second point
which Mr, Robertson made, namely, that there shoLtld be
some reference
to fLtrther consLtltation
on procedLtres for
the exchange of information
and that they thought this
might be worked into their reply.
They were more dubious
about the first.
Mr. Rae told them that we attached
importance
to both,
Mr. Rae was told that as a result
the note would be revised
and would have to be circulated
again to interested
agencies
in Washington and that,
in
the light of this, we could not expect to receive
it
before the middle of June.
I reported
this conversation
to Mr. Leger on the same
Y~. Leger thought it important
that no impression
------~hould
get about that the delay was due to the Canadian
Cl.RCULATION equest
for revision,
He accordingly
consulted
the .Minister
ho confirmed that it was his view that the note should not
e held up because of our request.
It must be made clear
o them that it was up to 'them and it was their responsibility
f they wished to delay the answer further,
Mr. Leger
onveyed this view to Mr. Robertson
this morning and he was
sked to make this position
clear to the State Departmentj
f they continue
to hold it up.,ettt- the State Department should
e willing
to say publicly,
if requested,
that they~
still
onsulting
in Washington.
It should also be made clear to
he State Department that it was a matter for the State Departent if they wished to pursLte the point which we had made,

.v M~ Robertson
~
will be reporting
by telegram the results
of his further
conversation.
'Mr. Robertson added that
he thinks the United States Embassy in Ottawa has been
advising
the State Department to hold up delivery
of the
reply until after the election.
Mr. Leger commented
that this was satisfacrlo
y provided
it was clear that
this was the decision
the United States Government
and not one which had een requested
by the Canadian
Government.
3.
Mr. Leger suggested
a memorandum for the
week giving a further
that I should prepare
Prime Minister
at the end of this
report.
