The Secretary of State to the Minister in Costa Rica ( Davis )

25. Legation’s 45, June 21, noon. You may in your discretion advise President González that the Government of the United States would view with pleasure a satisfactory solution of the boundary dispute between Costa Rica and Panama, and that it would have no objection should that settlement be arrived at by direct negotiations between the two Governments or by negotiations conducted under the good offices of the Chilean Minister.

The Department however does not desire to enter into any joint action in this question.
