The Ambassador in Belgium (Fletcher) to the Acting Secretary of State

63. Minister of Foreign Affairs, noting press reports of the recent negotiations with De la Huerta, reminds me of Department’s [Page 685] promise not to recognize Mexico without informing Belgian Government beforehand. Please cable me a line to reassure him, first, that recognition by us is not imminent, and, second, that his Government will be advised beforehand, if, and when, recognition contemplated.

Fletcher
