The Secretary of State to the Minister in Costa Rica (Hornibrook)

24. For Corrigan. Your 66, April 8, 7 p.m. You will be authorized to proceed at once to Washington for consultation, following which it is hoped that it will be possible for you to make the visits with other members of the commission to Tegucigalpa and Managua as suggested in Department’s no. 22, April 1, 1 p.m.

The Department is confident that you will be able to explain tactfully to Dr. Rodriguez that, while his offer to come to Washington is appreciated, it is feared that his visit at this time might be misinterpreted by the other governments concerned.

Please cable date you expect to arrive in Washington.
