19. Department’s telegram No. 15, July 6, 7 p.m.31 On July 3 when I called on President Carías to invite him to the Fourth of July reception at the Legation we discussed informally the visit of President Somoza to Tegucigalpa. The President told me that the boundary controversy between Honduras and Nicaragua was touched only in general terms in his conversation with the President of Nicaragua and no agreements were reached.
