There will be several meetings of the
cabinet to discuss the communication
before any definite decision is reached
regarding the future course Of action.
Addressing the second chamber this
afternoon, Foreign Minister Van San
deren explained that the suspension Of
the Holland-Venezuelan treaty OF
1894 has been ordered because Presi-
dent Castro had failed to comply with
the demand of the Netherlands gov
eminent that the trans-shipment de-
cree issued last summer against Gu
racao be Withdrawn before November
1. This, he said, left Holland free
to act and the government had cabled
the government at Curacao that Hol-
land considered herself freed from all
obligations toward Venezuela; fur
thermOre, the governor was instructed
temporarily to suspend the prohtbi-
ton against the expectation of arms
from Curacao to Venezuela.
