The Minister in Ecuador (Gonzalez) to the Secretary of State

Quito, July 10, 1936—noon.
[Received 10:58 p.m.]

29. Referring to Department’s telegram No. 23, July 7, 2 p.m., the Minister for Foreign Affairs recognized unqualifiedly the reasonableness of our position but as he was unfamiliar with recent developments he referred me to the Minister of Public Works who is also Acting Minister of Finance. The latter is in accord with the hope expressed and he will discuss the matter in that light with the President today.

Gonzalez
