It will be remembered that notes were exchanged between the United States, Great Britain, Soviet Kussia, and the Republic of Turkey on the subject of the Turkish Straits which it was desired during the Potsdam talks to link with the general problem of peace.

5 In the course of the scholastic year 1946-1947 Professor Herbert Smith (London University), Professor Phillip Jessup (Columbia University), Professor Herbert Briggs (Cornell University) and Professor Gilbert Gidel (former Rector of the University of Paris) were so invited. Professor Smith arrived in October, 1946 and lectured on The Changing Law of Nations. Professor Briggs lectured in Turkey in March of this year. I should like to express our gratitude to United States Ambassador Wilson who is greatly admired by all concerned and to whom we are indebted for his kindness in ensuring the visit of the American professor.
