The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in Chile (Culbertson)
50. Department’s views as set forth in telegram No. 49 of July 16, 3 p.m. have been communicated to the Brazilian, Argentine, British, German and French Embassies and to Colombian Legation here.
Brazilian Ambassador, in saying that he would communicate this to his Government, volunteered that he would suggest that it was premature to recognize at present. British Ambassador has received instructions from his Government indicating that the British views are [Page 467] the same as ours. German Government has been requested through Chilean representative in Berlin to accord recognition but German Ambassador here indicated that his Government desires to cooperate with us in this matter.
The Department’s views were given to the above diplomatic representatives here either as a result of direct inquiry on their part since the Chilean note mentioned in your 132 of July 14, 2 p.m. was received or as a result of previous requests to be informed of our position.
