WPD 3297–32

Dear Mr. Secretary: With reference to your letter of May 1, 1929 (Me 812.00 Detention/60 [62]), in which you request that the United States Army authorities continue to hold in custody the eighteen armed Mexican rebels who recently crossed the border at Sasabe, Arizona, I am pleased to advise you that this will be done and that they will not be turned over to the United States Immigration authorities without prior consultation with your Department.

Sincerely yours,

James W. Good
