The Acting Secretary of State to the Chargé in Argentina (White)
31. Your 48, June 5, noon. The Department considers that the restrictions imposed by the Exchange Control Commission are of a sufficiently serious character to warrant your requesting a special audience with the Minister of Foreign Affairs in order to make suitable representations with a view to obtaining the withdrawal of the regulation.
In addition to the foregoing you were requested in telegram No. 30 to invite the attention of the Minister of Foreign Affairs to the clause of the Anglo-Argentine Trade Treaty which, in the opinion of the Department, constitutes an undue burden on American business interests.
It is not believed that these subjects can be adequately presented to the Minister of Foreign Affairs on the occasion of the diplomatic reception which you mention.
