2359. ReConGentel 2348, June 18. Mayor has refused my request for interview and referred matter to Foreign Affairs Bureau.
In light of Deptel 1215, June 16, am disinclined at moment to approach local authorities further, at least until we find out what prospects are for working out a settlement with ex-Navy employees. I shall, therefore, take no further action in this unless instructed to contrary by Department, or unless invited to Foreign Affairs Bureau.
