740.0011 European War 1939/1289: Telegram

The Minister in Uruguay (Wilson) to the Secretary of State

155. Your circular December 20, 2 p.m. I have just seen Guani. He wrote out in my presence the following which he will telegraph to Cantilo and which he authorized me to transmit to you as his reply to our inquiry:

“I accept your (the Argentine) draft in principle while reserving the right to make an observation on the rules suggested at the end of the draft.”

I have informed the Peruvian Minister of the foregoing who tells me that he has just heard that his Government accepts in principle “the United States draft” as modified by Argentina, subject to certain reservations.

Wilson
