Britain apologizes for ambassador interview
Discreet remarks attributed to Sir Lionel Carden, Britain's ambassador to Brazil, prompt an official apology from the British foreign office. Sir Cecil Spring-Rice seeks confirmation or denial and assures the United States of prompt action. The issue includes efforts to verify the interview and potential disciplinary steps. The report also notes the U S government asking Brazil to clear a British tramp steamer, the Robert Dollar, held at Rio de Janeiro amid a dispute over recognition.
