Investigation Clears Slater and Brooke in Diplomatic Fete Case
Reports from American diplomatic and consular officers in England, received by the State Department, indicate vindication of Gonaul Slater and Vice Consul Brooke from charges of improper travel solicitation for the American Shipman Board and discrimination against the British merchant tribe. A London embassy inquiry directed by Ambassador Harwey found corroborating evidence, with Britain’s Foreign Office also seeking traditional material before final action. Washington reportedly has no plan to reopen the case.
