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

67. My telegram[s] Nos. 54 and 62. I would appreciate having at the first possible moment advice as to what action if any the Department has taken in accordance with my suggestions. The Department will realize that the decision involved constitutes a major question of policy and it is difficult, if not impossible, for me to proceed in the conversations I am to have this week until I am informed what action the Department has taken or intends to take in the matter.
