Yepis’ telegram June 3, 5 p.m., and my 246, June 4, 1 p.m. General Hay told me yesterday that he had urgently requested no definitive dotations be made of American property in Yaqui Valley at this time. He said he had communicated at noon on June 4 with the Agrarian Department where he was told that nothing was known of any plan to make these dotations definitive and that he also communicated by telephone with Licenciado Beteta at San Luis Potosí asking him to take up the matter with the President and with Licenciado Gabino Vazquez, head of the Agrarian Department.
