The Acting Secretary of State to the Chargé in Nicaragua ( Curtis )

Your January 8, 3 p.m.

Department is apprehensive of the result of arresting Honduran workmen even though on Nicaraguan territory. Department deems it important that Nicaragua strictly observe the status quo and feels confident that it will do so. Take up matter with the Minister for Foreign Affairs in this sense.
