Memorandum by the Acting Secretary of State of a Conversation With the Argentine Ambassador (Espil)
The Argentine Ambassador referred to a note which he had addressed to the Department towards the end of the Hoover administration on the subject of the export to the United States of Argentine beef, to which the Department had made merely an acknowledgment.43 Unofficially, however, the Ambassador said he had been informed that the Hoover administration would, if reelected, undertake to find some satisfactory solution to this troublesome question. I suggested that the Ambassador raise the question again with the Department, which he said he would do.
The Ambassador then referred to the litigation concerning Argentine casings [casein?] which was now before our courts. He asked me to do what I could to facilitate a decision in this matter.
