The Secretary of State to the Minister in Cuba (Gonzales)
Washington, December
10, 1919, 5 p.m.
Press despatch from Havana printed in New York Sun today states that you have issued a statement to the effect that United States Government would not supervise the coming elections in Cuba.
[Page 84]In view of the fact that you asked instructions of the Department in this matter which were issued in Department’s telegram of December 8, 1 p.m., I am reluctant to believe that this press report is accurate.
