Memorandum of Conversation, by the Under Secretary of State (Welles)
[Washington,] May 17, 1941.
The British Ambassador called to see me this morning.
I took occasion to say again to Lord Halifax that I was profoundly worried by the continued delay on the part of the British Government to take any steps looking towards an adjustment of the boundary difficulties between Guatemala and British Honduras. Lord Halifax said that he would again take the matter up with his Government and urge that prompt steps be taken in the sense desired.
