The Chargé in Peru (Mayer) to the Secretary of State
[Received 4 p.m.]
175. Your 92, September 18, 4 p.m. As authorized in the third paragraph, I am informing President Leguía confidentially. As a gesture in support of the President’s attitude toward American aviation interests in Peru, I hope very much that the official announcement of Colonel Lindbergh’s South American trip may come first as acceptance of Peru’s invitation and be initiated from Lima. With this in mind, a public announcement at the present time of Colonel Lindbergh’s impending visit would not appear to be desirable.
