The Secretary of State to the Minister in Honduras (Erwin)
29. Legation’s 67, September 19, 8 p.m. The Department desires that you immediately and informally approach the Foreign Minister and, referring to the information which has come to you, convey to him the Department’s concern over the possibility of citizens of the United States being employed or becoming involved in any military operations within or without the borders of Honduras. In this connection you should call to the Minister’s attention the assurances given the Legation by the President and the former Minister for Foreign Affairs to the effect that no American aviators would be so employed.
The Department desires to be kept fully advised as to Honduran attitude.
