This Soviet reply to the American government attempts to lay out Soviet changes to American proposals for a control mechanism and Far East Commission in Japan and provides justification for those changes.
Molotov and Harriman argue, respectively, for the Soviet and American proposals for a control mechanism and Far East Commission in Japan, failing to iron out differences between the two proposals.
Molotov agrees with Stalin's drafted reply to the United States on behalf of the four (himself, Beria, Malenkov, and Mikoyan).

Kliment Voroshilov reports on the likely composition of the new Hungarian government and provides commentary on the characteristics of some of the new cabinet members.
Molotov, Beria, Malenkov, and Mikoyan suggest means by which they believe Kliment Voroshilov can structure the Hungarian government in such a way that the Communists have significant control and relations between Hungary and the Soviet Union are friendly.
Stalin discusses Soviet reception of a speech in which Winston Churchill praised Russia and Stalin, the need to exclude viticulture and fruit-growing from the People’s Commissariat of Industrial Crops, and the urgency with which Soviet diplomats should be withdrawn from the regions in which Mao Zedong's troops are operating lest the Soviets be accused of organizing the Chinese civil war.
