The Acting Secretary of State to the Counselor of Embassy in Spain (Thurston)

407. Your 814 and 815 of October 30, 4 p.m., and October 31, 11 a.m.92

You may proceed with arrangement for removal to Barcelona, but you should not finally depart until authorized to do so. In this connection we shall wish to be informed when Ministry of State is finally installed at Barcelona and when other foreign missions actually leave Valencia. We are particularly interested in the course followed by the Swedish and Danish Legations, since the position of these countries seems more nearly similar to our own.

[Here follow detailed instructions regarding personnel.]
