The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in Chile (Culbertson)

[Paraphrase]

33. …

With regard to your 45, March 20, 7 p.m. I think that under the circumstances there is nothing else to do now except to await the report of the engineers and find out what Chile and Peru agree upon.

I am familiar with the long written explanation to Ambassador Davila so you do not need to repeat it. I do not think it would be advisable to press Chile any further; but desire your opinion as to whether there is any prospect of anything being done while I am Secretary of State.
