Cablegram unnumbered (extract) TOKYO [1], 25 July 1947
IMMEDIATE SECRET
(4) Regarding Indonesia, I point out that to make approach only if
the United Kingdom do not object is simply to invite such
objection and thereby bypassing the only constitutional tribunal
that is the Security Council which in relation to international
situations has function analogous to the arbitration court in
relation to industrial situations and disputes.
