832.00 Revolutions/369
Memorandum by the Assistant Chief of the Division of Latin American Affairs (Matthews)
[Washington,] August 31, 1932.
Mr. Bousquet called again this morning with reference to his visit of yesterday concerning the French proposal for joint action to prevent the export of arms to Brazil. After inquiring as to the meaning of a part of Article I of the Convention, a copy of which I gave him yesterday, he asked whether this Government is in fact selling any Government arms to the Federal Government of Brazil. I told him no.
