The Chargé in Chile (Heath) to the Secretary of State
[Received September 18—3:02 a.m.]
1643. Reference my 1631, September 15, 7 p.m.58 The Embassy believes that the visit of Fernández to Washington affords a good opportunity to take up the question of going forward with a program of expulsion from Chile and internment in the United States of the dangerous Axis nationals here in order to implement Chile’s rupture of relations with the Axis. As the Department is aware, no Axis nationals have been interned and the measures taken against the dangerous Axis nationals in Chile have been most ineffective.
Please bring this telegram to the Ambassador’s attention.
