The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in Brazil (Caffery)

3. Your despatch 214, December 23. The Department does not object to insertion of the words “officially known” in the undertaking regarding subsidization.

The Department would prefer not to have publication made at this time of the Brazilian Ambassador’s note to the Department, dated July 14, 1937, but would have no objection to the Brazilian Government giving a copy of the note to the German Government with the understanding that it was not for publication.
