The Commissioner in the Dominican Republic (Welles) to the Acting Secretary of State
[Received 2:18 p.m.]
18. The final version of the plan, containing the modification conveyed in the Department’s September 14, 4 [6] p.m. and a complete [Page 53] list of all the Executive orders, etc., was signed by the members of the Commission yesterday. It is my intention to have copies of the official Spanish version appear simultaneously in all the newspapers throughout the Republic. Owing to the delay in the mails, this publication will be deferred till Saturday, September 23rd.
I beg to request that the Department defer publication of the plan in the United States until the copies of the Spanish and English text of the plan as signed here, which I am forwarding by the next mail, be received.
