18 other American republics on the
facts behind the revolutionary coup
in Bolivia which resulted in the
overthrow of President Penaranda
and the institution of a regime
headed by President Gualberto Vii
laroel
This information will determine
whether this country and the other
anti-AXis American republics rec
ognize the new Bolivian govern
ment. The American Government
has proceeded cautiously in the be-
lief that the coup might have been
prompted by Argentinian influences
unfriendly to the United States and
to continental solidarity.
Secretary of State Hull agreed yes
terday to the consultation at the
request of the er-American Emer-
gency Advisory Committee for Po-
litical Defense in Montevideo, Uru-
quay. Every republic except Bolivia
and Argentina has accepted the
committees proposal, according to
an Associated Press dispatch from
Montevideo.
However. some of the govern
ments are reserving the right to act
alone on the question of recognition
after the consultation. Argentina
Is the only country that has recog-
nized the Bolivian regime which

that looked like silver. All he saw
were some loose heaps of strange
