My telegram 119. [1] Indonesia.
In connection with the persistent press reports giving August 22nd
as the opening date of the R.T.C., A.N.P. has reported
authoritative statement 'that the opening date cannot be fixed
unilaterally by the Dutch; it would have to be decided in
consultation with the Republican and Federalist delegations and
with U.N.C.I. Discussions to this end would begin as soon as
possible.'
