882.01 Foreign Control/85: Telegram
The Ambassador in Great Britain (Dawes) to the Secretary of State
[Received March 4—9:05 a.m.]
61. From Reber: The Liberian Committee adjourned yesterday having approved the instructions to the experts and the resolution regarding immediate sanitary measures. The Liberian delegation accepted these and the Venezuelan delegate added a reservation to the effect that the experts’ recommendations must be held within the terms of reference of the Committee.
Sottile requested that the American Government facilitate the release of funds for sanitation. Summarizing the position of the Financial Adviser under the loan agreement,40 I replied I did not see in what way the American Government was directly connected with this question as it would appear to relate to a private agreement between the Finance Corporation and the Liberian Government.
