The Ambassador in Spain (Bowers) to the Acting Secretary of State

37. Your telegram No. 24, June 22 [12], 5 p.m. I am unofficially informed that Spain has granted “benefits” of 32 percent on French automobiles by an unpublished agreement which parties apparently wish to keep secret. I have written a note of inquiry to the Foreign Minister and will protest as soon as I can obtain official confirmation.
