The President wishes to call the attention of the
Government of the People's Republic of China to the follow-
formally to the Soviet proposal for a conference of the five
nuclear powers. It is transmitting an oral. comment to the
Soviet Foreign Ministry through the U. S. Ambassador in
Moscow along these lines:
The subject of nuclear disarmament is
worthy of serious consideration. A conference
would require careful preparation and agreement
feasible for discussion. The views of non-nuclear
states should be considered. All five powers must
among the five powers as to what subjects were
be willing to attend.
It is not anticipated that a formal reply will be made.
