The Minister in Uruguay (Wilson) to the Secretary of State
[Received October 29—5:37 p.m.]
248. My 241, October 22, 2 p.m. Lieutenant Colonel Christian and Captain Brereton leave today for Buenos Aires, the former proceeding tomorrow by air for the United States.
The conversations here have been highly satisfactory.
