The Secretary of State to the Representative of the President (Corrigan)

46. Your telegrams No. 53, May 19, 11 a.m., and No. 55, May 22, 4 p.m. In view of reports that President Somoza intends to visit Tegucigalpa in order to discuss with President Carías a possible solution of the boundary problem, I do not consider it wise for the Commission or Mr. Ocheltree to take any action at this time. Ocheltree’s proposed visit to Tegucigalpa should therefore be deferred.

I think that the Commission should bear in mind the possibility of carrying out the visit following the conversation between the two presidents if it then appears that the visit should be desirable.
