The Chargé in El Salvador ( McCafferty ) to the Secretary of State

104. I am reliably informed that 500 old rifles and 500,000 rounds of 11 and 7 millimeter ammunition are being furnished to the Honduran Government by the Martinez regime to suppress the revolution there. Planes of the Taca Company have been making two trips to San Salvador daily to transport these arms. Although without foundation the general impression here is that the Guatemalan Government has been aiding the rebels. Repeated to Legations Tegucigalpa and Guatemala.
