The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in Argentina (Bliss)

Washington, February 14, 1933—5 p.m.

11. An Associated Press despatch from Berlin dated February 13 states that it has been officially announced that the difficulties between Germany and Argentina arising out of the Argentine-Chilean modus vivendi have been settled; that Argentina has modified the modus vivendi with Chile eliminating features which Germany regarded as discriminating against German trade; and that Argentina has agreed to include Germany “in the list of most-favored nations” as of February 9.

Please inquire regarding the foregoing at Foreign Office and cable report.
