Marshall, vice president of address here. probably will not be received for at least another week. Ambassador Gerard in his reports to the State department has not set a specific| date, but has conjectured that a week would be required to finish the com- munication While Mr, Gerard has kept the Wash- ington government constantly informed of the gossip in officlal quarters in Berlin with reference to the German reply, he has been unable to learn definitely as yet Just what it will outline.
