The Ambassador in Argentina (Armour) to the Secretary of State
[Received 5:58 p.m.]
115. Department’s telegram 106, June 28, 4 p.m., and instruction No. [6] June 28, 1939. I called on the Minister for Foreign Affairs today and left with him the memorandum, at the same time bringing to his attention the points raised in the instruction under reference. Dr. Cantilo assured me that the matter would be given immediate attention, adding that probably even before an official reply is given to our proposals, he hopes to be able to give us a general idea of his Government’s reactions.
In order to expedite action I left with the Minister a Spanish translation of the memorandum and its enclosures. Dr. Cantilo expressed appreciation for the thorough study which our Government had made and seemed to understand the need for prompt action.
