48. Department has received disquieting information regarding stability of present Government. Please cable Department whether in your opinion the situation is grave. The Department is advised that urgent representations have been made to the President by certain of his supporters to make changes in his Cabinet which they believe would strengthen the Government. Advise Department whether President shows any intention of taking such action and report whether any of the recommendations made by Young12 have been adopted.
