President Coolidge to the Secretary of State

My Dear Mr. Secretary: I have received your letter of June 5th, suggesting that it appears preferable for the United States, rather than to consider the imposition of additional import duties on merchandise from Nicaragua, to negotiate an arrangement with a view to eliminating the discriminations by mutual consent. The course of action you outline meets with my approval.

Very truly yours,

Calvin Coolidge
