Washington officials said Germany 4 is in no hurry to cancel the exequatory held by neutral consuls in Belgian territory under German rule. The German note will be studied at length before a decision. The United States aims to avoid any action that could be seen as political recognition of German Belgium. Officials declined to comment on contents but noted no intent to put the U S or neutrals in an embarrassing position. A similar issue could arise with Britain re neutral consuls in Egypt under a British protectorate. Neutral consuls may remain accredited to Turkish and Egyptian authorities unless Britain raises the question.
