The Ambassador in Mexico (Daniels) to the Secretary of State

Vera Cruz, March 9, 1936—11 p.m.
[Received March 10—11:20 a.m.]

I venture to express the hope that opportunity may offer for the President to tender good offices to avert war in Europe. If we had acted promptly in August, 1914, that catastrophe might have been averted or its tragedy ended earlier.
