Memorandum by the Assistant Secretary of State (White)

The Ecuadoran Minister told me that he had been instructed by his Government to tell me how much it appreciated the action of the Department in bringing Ecuador’s desire to take part in the territorial settlement of the Upper Amazon to the attention of the Governments of Colombia and Peru. He added that his Government also directed him to express to me personally its thanks for the action taken.
