The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in France (Bullitt)

433. Reference telegram of June 30, 5 p.m. from Consulate General at Barcelona regarding traveling and maintenance expenses of American volunteers passing through France from Spain. We suggest Amariglio may be able to make some arrangement in this connection. In the absence of appropriated funds for repatriation of stranded Americans abroad we do not see how our Consulate at Marseille could give suggested assurances.

Please repeat to Consulates at Barcelona and Marseille and keep Barcelona informed of any developments.
