File No. 713.001/71

The Chargé in Costa Rica ( Johnson) to the Secretary of State

[Telegram]

Central American Court of Justice had formal closing session at 3 p.m., 12th instant; archives and property turned over to the Costa Rican Government. Closing resolution included one to call upon Tinoco and amicably request full amnesty be given all political prisoners. Undoubtedly political move dictated by almost unanimous hostility of members towards him. Call made, but military process against prisoners continues and further arrests made.

Johnson
