Manzanillo, May 30, 1920—5 p.m.
[Received June 2—9:40 a.m.]

Congressional reception committee to receive Provisional President Huerta invites commander of American destroyer Bailey and myself to visit Mexico City as its guests, has placed private car at our disposal and requesting that invitation should be placed before State Department and Navy Department.

My recommendation is that acceptance is impracticable.
