24. Supplementing my telegram No. 21, February 2, 6 p.m., Minister for Foreign Affairs showed no inclination now to take further direct action in the Leticia matter. He implied that Brazil was not sympathetic to too active a participation of Chile in the matter. The chief reason, however, in my opinion, is that he is absorbed in the Chaco question.87
