The Ambassador in Chile (Culbertson) to the Secretary of State
[Received 2:20 p.m.]
190. With reference to the Department’s telegram 72, August 26, 6 p.m., the Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs stated that the reply in question refers to article 10 section 10 of the Constitution and to book 4 title 16 of the Code of Civil Procedure.
May I have as soon as possible instructions which would [enable?] me to make clear to the present Chilean regime our attitude toward recognition? I have not connected my requests for clarification of its policy toward international obligations with recognition, but the implication follows from the circumstances that we intend to recognize if the assurances requested are given. If you desire any further data on the present situation I shall be glad to supply it.
