The Minister in Liberia (Walton) to the Secretary of State

No. 159

Sir: I have the honor to refer to my despatch No. 147, November 17, 1937, relative to Administrative Circular No. 5, dated August 23, 1937, paragraph 2b. In conversation with the President I was advised informally that instructions had been given the Supervisor of Customs to change the phraseology which had given offense.

Copies of recent correspondence on the subject are herewith enclosed.33

Respectfully yours,

Lester A. Walton
