SG 75 PACIFIC Mail STEAMSHIP COMPANY NEWPORT AT San Francisco EX BURDA Moy. 101 February 4th 1918 SUBJECT: Report of Central American Attitude H Rosseter, Esq Vice President General Manager Go Pacific Mail Steamship Co Dear Sir: Following your instructions concerning above for the voyage 101; Please be advised that the apparent friendliness in San Salvador seems to be sincere. that in Guatemala is sincere beyond a doubt.
In Honduras, the general feeling seems to be against the United States, especially among the higher officials.
The fact that at the port of Amapala up until a short time ago the German residents at that port especially those of the house Kohncke Co, who, from what have seen and heard would do most anything to further German interests, hold regular drills at arms under the apparent approval of the Honduras Government, it would seem that the general attitude of that country is unfriendly.
Very respectfully (Sgd) W Yardley Commander
