219. If after considering my telegram No. 218, October 16, 9 p.m., you are inclined to grant recognition in the immediate future, please give me preliminary advice of your decision in order that I may send you a final opinion on the political situation. Some people feel that this is a very critical week for the present regime and for this reason it may be well to await developments and withhold a definite decision until the first of next week.
Culbertson
