The Chargé in France (Wilson) to the Secretary of State
[Received March 12—11:35 a.m.]
352. Our 333, March 10, noon. The Cuban Minister having advised me that he had obtained permission from the French Foreign Office for the refugees in the Cuban Embassy in Madrid to land in France I have confirmed at the Foreign Office that they have informed the Cuban Legation that permission is granted for the landing in France of the 200 refugees in the Cuban Embassy at Madrid on condition that the passports of the refugees indicate that they are not valid for Spain, Spanish possessions, and zones of influence such as Morocco.
The Foreign Office states that it would appreciate knowing as soon as convenient the name of the American naval vessel which will transport these refugees and the date of its arrival at Marseille.
