The Ambassador in Brazil (Gibson) to the Secretary of State
[Received August 3—5:44 p.m.]
155. Department’s 90, July 26, 9 p.m. Argentine Ambassador called at Foreign Office this afternoon to state that his Government was not in favor of inviting the other six states to join in the mediation and felt it should be restricted to the original three until definite agreement was reached.
Minister of Foreign Affairs states he is anxious to follow the course adopted by us in this matter. He is in favor of inviting the other six [Page 164] but before sending instructions to the Brazilian Ambassador in Buenos Aires he would appreciate a statement of your own intentions.
I should be glad if this could be given me urgently so that instructions may be sent to Buenos Aires.
