The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in Argentina ( Bliss )

Washington , December 10, 1928—8 p.m.

64. My December 9, 6 p.m. The Conference of Conciliation and Arbitration at its inaugural plenary session this morning passed a resolution regarding Bolivian-Paraguayan difficulty, the text of which has doubtless been cabled down by the press.⁶¹ Copies have been sent to Ministers of Foreign Affairs of Bolivia and Paraguay. It is therefore of the utmost importance to the Department to know what action if any is being taken by Argentina. The Committee will meet December 11, 4 p.m. If possible, please cable before that time any information available regarding Argentina’s attitude and action.
