The Chargé in Argentina (Cabot) to the Secretary of State

3241. Yesterday Olano authorized Embassy investigate records at [Química] Schering, Wayss and Freytag and Siemens group. In conversation with Embassy officer it was felt that Olano is aware of [Page 505] real purpose investigation and that he had no objections providing that Embassy investigating officers proceed with discretion and minimum fanfare. Other Junta officials and Government delegate-managers in controlled Axis firms continue to offer assistance and cooperation to Embassy investigating group.
