The Ambassador in Argentina (Weddell) to the Secretary of State

241. From Braden. My 240, October 27, midnight. If Paraguay does not appoint delegates then prior to taking action contemplated in paragraph 4 (b) my telegram under reference the Conference will probably organize the commission to consist of mediatory officers only. This commission in consultation with the two commissioners may conceivably be able to draft a mutually satisfactory reglementation but if Paraguay continues resistance to any reasonable accommodation of this matter the Conference at least would have exhausted every recourse before forcing issue on the territorial question. [Braden.]
