[Received 5:30 p.m.]
66. Your 41 of September 27 [26], 4 p.m. The British Chargé has now sent a report to his Government on this matter and has asked for instructions to make a protest. … The applications of Romano-Americana have as yet not been acted upon favorably by the Minister of Industry as promised. The Minister has referred the question to a committee.
No protests have been made as yet by the Belgian, French or Netherlands Legations. Apparently the companies are waiting to see the result of the collective protest reported in Legation’s telegram 64 of September 30 before asking for the intervention of their Governments.
