Mr. Julio Acosta to President Wilson28

[Translation]
Peña Blanca, August 16, 1919.

Now that Tinoco has abandoned the power, the occasion appears propitious to respectfully solicit from Your Excellency the official recognition (of the) government that presides (over) the patriotic movement that is at the head, in order to avoid greater sufferings in Costa Rica and to restore peace to the country and the lost cordiality. Be pleased [etc.]

Julio Acosta
  1. Received in the Department Sept. 16, probably from the White House.↩
