The Special Representative of the President (Corrigan) to the Secretary of State

84. Zuniga Montufar wishes to postpone any action regarding the Honduran–Nicaraguan controversy because he will be completely occupied during an undetermined part of the month of September with the Panama-Costa Rica boundary settlement (reference special mission despatch No. 99 of August 23rd).55 His attitude is satisfactory and he has agreed to devote the month of October to the work of the Mediation Commission. He has tentatively agreed to the whole program [Page 267] which I outlined but wishes to have the sanction of President Cortes before making a definite commitment. I am staying over for a conference which he has arranged with the President and will leave San José on Thursday.
