The Ambassador in Cuba (Welles) to the Secretary of State

Habana, October 30, 1933—noon.
[Received 1:15 p.m.]

416. Personal for the Under Secretary. Referring to our telephone conversation, every sign seems to indicate a change in government here which would make prompt success possible. I believe change will take place this week and if so, I could be relieved a week or so thereafter or as necessary [sic] as soon as necessary measures of economic assistance to new government had been initiated.
