40. Department’s telegrams numbers 24, August 22, 6 p.m., and 25 August 22, 7 p.m. Consul General and I have just seen Minister of Hacienda and left a memorandum based upon telegrams under reference.
We gather that some minor concessions may be granted but any reduction in wheat flour duty will be difficult if not impossible to obtain. Minister stated he would give immediate attention to our memorandum and that he hoped to reply thereto by September 2.
