The Ambassador in Peru (Moore) to the Secretary of State
[Received April 22—3 a.m.]
78. This afternoon Ambassador Figueroa told President Leguia in my presence that Chile would accept President Leguia’s proposition to have President Hoover make the compromise suggestion for the settlement. He stated that Chile’s formal acceptance would be handed to President Leguia on Thursday, April 25. When the formal acceptance is received, the papers will be immediately drawn up, and when they are completed they will be sent to you at once for submission to President Hoover for his approval.
I do not think this will take long as all the points have been agreed upon.
If you have any suggestions, I will be glad to receive them.
