The Secretary of State to the Minister in Honduras (Summerlin)
23. Honduras and Guatemala both having agreed to send a commission to inspect the border and to fix a provisional line, this Government feels that the best interests of both Governments would be served by promptly appointing such a commission and undertaking the work of fixing a provisional line as soon as possible to avoid any further incidents while the two Governments actively undertake the permanent adjustment of the boundary difficulty. This Government will appoint a representative to accompany the commissioners appointed by Honduras and Guatemala and will advise his name as soon as possible. Please take up with the Government to which you are accredited the question of appointing promptly its commissioners and ask for its suggestion as to where the commission should first meet to undertake this work. A similar telegram is being sent to Guatemala.1
