He told me that the new President wanted him to take the most of Foreign Minister but that before accenting he wanted to consult Figueres about it and also about the rest of the cabinet. Because the road to Cartago is probably still somewhat dangerous and because he might be stopped at the Figueres lines, he wanted Col.

Later called briefly on the President and on Bonilla Lara. had not been present at the meeting of the Corps last night when they took formelfarewell.
