The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in Great Britain ( Houghton )

[Paraphrase]

154. Information has come to the Department which indicates that revolutionists in Honduras are trying to get arms and ammunition from Belize, British Honduras.

Please take up the matter with the proper authorities and orally and informally express to them the hope that they will take all proper measures to prevent arms being exported from Belize to Honduras where they might be used to foment disorders. This Government is now endeavoring to assist the recently established constitutional authorities in Honduras to establish order.
