The Secretary of State to the Minister in Greece (MacVeagh)
Washington, April
25, 1935—5 p.m.
26. Your 55, April 23, 7 p.m. With reference to trial of Papanastasiou, Caphandaris, Mylonas and Gonatas you may in your discretion, and acting solely in your personal capacity and if similar action is being taken by your colleagues, orally and informally indicate to the Greek authorities that arbitrary action in the trial or execution of these men would in your opinion undoubtedly make an unfortunate impression in this country.
