[To the] Xinjiang Foreign Affairs Office:
Concerning the investigation of the automobile of the Soviet consulate, the draft report from the Yili [Ili] Office [of the Xinjiang Foreign Affairs Department] has been received. However, the situation report has not yet been received. For [our] use in further negotiations, please quickly send this report as well as the complete records of conversation between Comrade Cao Hongzhang and the Soviet consul from 31 May.
