[Here follows the text of telegram No. 31, December 9, 6 p.m., printed supra.]

[Page 683]

Please telegraph immediately your views as to whether any suggestion from the Government of the United States to the Government of Bolivia along the line of accepting the constitution of a Gondra commission would be misunderstood in Argentina. Of course I do not wish to interfere with the Argentine mediation. What action, if any, does the Government of Argentina contemplate in the present situation?
