The Secretary of State to the Chargé in Haiti ( McGurk )

73. Your telegram No. 101, August 26, 1 p.m. Unless you or the Deputy General Receiver perceive objection thereto, you may inform him that he is authorized in view of his previous verbal acquiescence to give his accord to the extraordinary credit of 3,000 gourdes for the repairs of the National Legislative Chambers recently passed by the Haitian Legislature, if adequate provision therefor is made in the new budget.

It is assumed that the question of the increase in salaries of the personnel of the Chamber of Deputies is being taken care of in the conferences you are now having on budget matters.
