The Acting Secretary of State to the Dominican Minister ( Pastoriza )
Sir: The receipt is acknowledged of your note of May 19, informing me that the Dominican Government prefers not to continue negotiations for the modification of the United States-Dominican Convention of 1924 upon the basis of the drafts which have recently been exchanged, but proposes to submit new suggestions in the near future to this Government in order to resume the negotiations from a different point of view.
In taking note of this statement, I may say that this procedure is satisfactory to this Government which will await with interest these new suggestions and which will be glad to examine them in a spirit of friendly cooperation.
Accept [etc.]
