The Secretary of State (Stimson) to the Minister in Liberia (Mitchell)
Washington, June 21, 1932—1
p.m.
40. The Department is in receipt of a letter from Colonel Lewis informing it that he has “tendered to the President of Liberia his resignation as military adviser of the Liberian Frontier Force”, effective July 15, 1932.
You may inform McCaskey informally. As you are aware, in view of our not having recognized the present administration, we would not be in a position to designate a successor.
