The Minister in Honduras (Summerlin) to the Secretary of State

Tegucigalpa, April 10, 1929—noon.
[Received 3:32 p.m.]

35. The Subsecretary for Foreign Affairs has just informed me by direction of the President of the Republic that the Minister of Mexico has requested permission for Sandino to pass unarmed through Honduras on his way to Mexico. Doctor Duron appeared to view the request sympathetically, but stated that no reply has yet been made to the Mexican Minister.

Repeated to Managua.
