The Minister in Bolivia (Feely) to the Secretary of State

48. The Bolivian Government today replied to the Argentine note of May 8 in part as follows:

Bolivia in the note of April 27 defending her points of view and safeguarding her rights, did not intend to cast any doubt on the lofty purposes of the Neutral Commission and the ABCP.

Reference is then made to the Bolivian telegram of May 4th requesting the renewal of the good offices, showing that Bolivia is desirous of seeing a successful outcome of the peace negotiations.

Bolivia considers the incident closed and expresses the hope that the traditional relations between the two countries will remain unaltered, and that Argentine will renew her cooperation in the noble work of peace.

Feely
