The Secretary of State to the Chargé in Guatemala (O’Donoghue)
26. Your letter of August 2336 to Beaulac.37 The Department had not considered that a reply by it to the Minister of Foreign Affairs’ note of July 17 was called for, inasmuch as that note was addressed to the Legation and not to the Department. However, if the Minister of Foreign Affairs expects this Department to reply, it will be glad to do so, provided that other governments have made similar replies. Please ask the Minister of Foreign Affairs what replies he has received from the other Central American Governments and telegraph a summary of them, transmitting copies by air mail if available.
