The Secretary of State to the Minister in Liberia ( Johnson )

10. Your 8, January 30, 3 p.m.

Also attention of Mr. Worley.

Department is greatly disturbed by seemingly changed attitude of Liberian Government since inauguration of King administration as indicated in your several telegrams. The disposition is apparent to increase expenditures very generally and to ignore the recommendations of the Financial Adviser. This Government naturally cannot countenance such an attitude if it exists. Please advise fully and frankly your impressions and views.
