882.01 Foreign Control/105: Telegram

The Secretary of State to the Consul at Geneva (Gilbert)

35. Your telegram No. 54, March 30, 5 p.m. I understand from the Legation at Monrovia that the Liberian Government has made certain funds available for sanitation under Dr. Howells.

Since I regard this matter as a question between the International Committee and the Liberian Government, I do not believe it would be desirable for you to discuss it with League officials. If again approached, you should state that you understand from the reports of the London meeting that your Government hoped that the experts might proceed to Liberia at as early a date as practicable.
