The Assistant to the Representative of the President (Ocheltree) to the Secretary of State

10. For Corrigan. The geographic data was presented under favorable circumstances to President Carías and other officials of the Honduran Government this afternoon in the Casa Presidential. I was accompanied by Secretary of Legation Salter.

The Chief of Protocol has stated on several occasions that if any result is to be expected from the presentation of the material I should also stop over at San Salvador to make similar presentation to Dr. Lainez38 in whom the President has largely confided Honduras’ relations with the Mediation Commission. In view of this the Department’s authorization is requested to stop over at San Salvador. I am leaving Tegucigalpa by plane on Wednesday and would leave San Salvador on Friday.

Ocheltree
  1. Chairman of the Honduran delegation to the mediation conference and Minister of Honduras in El Salvador.
