18. My 16, January 18, 3 p.m. Private secretary to the President has just shown me decode of telegram from President Carías stating:
- 1.
- He is awaiting arrival of Crisanto Sacasa to fix form of recognition and to learn President Sacasa’s plan (this telegram apparently crossed Sacasa’s letter to Carías of this morning).
- 2.
- Ubico believes recognition should be made simultaneously January 25.
- 3.
- American Legation states that Washington will grant recognition immediately thereafter.
- 4.
- Awaiting President Sacasa’s reply.
Repeated to Tegucigalpa.
