The Acting Secretary of State to the High Commissioner in Haiti (Russell)

48. Your 73, April 21, 11 a.m. Please deliver following message to President Borno:

“Your cooperation in carrying out the recommendation of the President’s Committee in Haiti is very much appreciated. It has been your constant helpful and friendly cooperation that has made possible the success of the assistance which the United States Government has been privileged to extend to Haiti over the last eight years and it affords me much pleasure to take this opportunity to express to you the sincere appreciation of this Government for your unfailingly helpful and sympathetic attitude. Without your support this most recent constructive measure could not have been accomplished and it makes a most happy climax to your administration. Signed J. P. Cotton, Acting Secretary of State.”
