The Acting Secretary of State to the Ambassador in Brazil (Morgan)

Washington, August 30, 1930.
No. 1562

Sir: The Department has received your despatch No. 3387 dated July 23, 1930, concerning the cases of persons of both American and Brazilian nationalities who desire to have their American passports visaed to enable them to leave Brazil.

You are informed that the American consular officers in Brazil are being instructed to take up all such cases with the Embassy in the future instead of taking them up with the local police authorities.

Very truly yours.

W. R. Castle, Jr.
