The Counselor of Embassy in Spain (Thurston) to the Secretary of State
[Received 8:10 p.m.]
1102. I shall today hand to the French Embassy and the Ministry of State a list of the 201 American volunteers whose passports have been found to be in good order and have been endorsed as directed in your 469, November 8. To facilitate repatriation I shall also informally hand a copy of same list to League Commission. Same procedure will be followed with respect to the seven volunteers holding seamen’s certificates. League Commission believes these 208 Americans can be conducted across French frontier this week provided all other necessary arrangements are made.
Photographs have just been received from Ripoll and final applications of those approved by the Department will now be executed by Consulate General upon termination this work. Same procedure as above will again be followed and reported to the Department.
