Memorandum by the Acting Chief of the Division of Latin American Affairs (Morgan) of a Telephone Conversation With the Vice President of the National Bank of Nicaragua (Tillinghast), January 4, 1927

After consultation with the Secretary I telephoned Mr. Tillinghast that the Department would issue the license requested as soon as the shipment was ready to be forwarded.

I informed the Nicaraguan Minister by telephone that the Department would issue a license for the export of the airplane bombs now at New Orleans and that the Department would in future issue licenses for the export of arms and ammunition consigned to the Diaz Government when such shipments were ready to go forward.
