Senior Gimeno announces, will eel
come a situation which had been
pointed out by some Of the American
consuls passing through here from
Germany on their way home. They
stated that at Cologne and some other
points the Spanish consul now in
charge of American interests was a
local German resident. This same
condition prevails in the American
and British consular service. Where
local residents are often employed in
consulates not of sufficient Importance
to warrant sending a native-born
American or British consul, Spain is
seeing that such a situation does not
apply to the are of American inter-
ests in Germany.
