The Secretary of State to the Minister in Paraguay (Nicholson)

31. Your 35, August 10, 10 a.m. The Department is advised by the Argentine Ambassador here that Dr. Saavedra Lamas believes that he has obtained a conciliatory statement from President Ayala which will be acceptable to the Chilean Government covering Point (1) of the statement issued by the Minister for Foreign Affairs quoted in your cable under reference. Dr. Saavedra Lamas is conferring today with the American and Brazilian Ambassadors in Buenos Aires. Until it is advised of the results of these conferences and of the results of Dr. Saavedra Lamas’ mediation between Chile and Paraguay, this Government believes it inadvisable to make any further representations to the Government of Paraguay.
