The Acting Secretary of State to the Minister in Honduras (Jones)
Washington, March 13,
1919, 5 p.m.
Ames, special representative of War Trade Board and State Department, has been ordered to Honduras to endeavor to persuade the government to pass legislation for the liquidation and sale of German interests, similar to that passed by Guatemala and practically all other American governments which have declared war on Germany. You are instructed to give him every assistance and cooperation possible and to make such representations to the Government as you may deem proper and necessary.
