The President of Cuba (Mendieta) to the Secretary of State

[Translation]

This Government will not forget the good intentions you have manifested in the Treaty of Reciprocity in favor of our people. So high and significant has your labor been and so generous the facilities that you have granted us that you deserve as the illustrious collaborator of His Excellency, President Roosevelt, the gratitude with which this people greet you, to which I unite my own with the expression of my highest personal consideration.

Carlos Mendieta
