Minister Sherrill to the Secretary of State.

[Telegram.]

Argentine minister for foreign affairs states that he is authorized by the President to accept your text proposed in May 12, and has instructed his ministers in Quito and Lima accordingly. He requests you to instruct our representatives there to put themselves in touch with his ministers. He already knew the text of Edwards’ telegram reported in your May 13.

Argentine minister for foreign affairs thoroughly approved policy outlined in your May 13, and requests me to reiterate that he desires to act in full accord with others in Peru-Ecuador and Tacna-Arica questions.

Sherrill.
