Washington, February 13, 1930—4 p.m.

16. Your 9, January 16, 3 p.m.46 Department has received letter from the National City Bank stating that Loomis will recommend McCaskey as Acting Financial Adviser. Upon receipt of formal letter of recommendation from Financial Adviser and if you believe McCaskey is satisfactory to the President of Liberia notify the Liberian Government that his appointment is approved by this Government. The Liberian Government will doubtlessly issue a commission as in the case of Bussell. Refer to your diplomatic despatch No. 33 of February 15, 1928.47
