The Minister in Poland (Gibson) to the Secretary of State

[Paraphrase]

146. The Minister of Mexico in Austria has approached the Government of Poland with an offer of colonization privileges and concessions if it will recognize the present Government of Mexico. I have assurances that Poland will not accord recognition until the United States recognizes Mexico. However, Government of Poland would appreciate a statement from the Government of the United States as to whether latter has yet accorded recognition, and if not, what the prospects of recognition are at the present time.
