The Secretary of State to the Chargé in Liberia (Reber)
[Paraphrase]
Washington, December 20, 1930—3
p.m.
119. Your No. 177, December 18, 9 p.m. The Department’s position having been outlined in its No. 111, December 5, 5 p.m., there is no reason for discussion with Liberia of partial compliance with the International Commission’s recommendations. You are authorized to express this viewpoint in the informal manner you suggest in your No. 177, last paragraph.
There need be no formal acknowledgment of the Liberian communication.
