American Consulate General,
Monterey, November 18, 1913.

Referring to my November 17. I have been informed by several Americans that they have been ordered to report to the Governor, to pay several thousand dollars each. On the basis of Department’s instructions to Consular service in Mexico, I shall earnestly protest against Americans being called to pay forced loans.
