The Secretary of State to the Chargé in Italy (Reed)

71. Personal from the Under Secretary. I do not feel that the Embassy is giving us nearly enough information by telegram with regard to present conditions. It is very important that the Department be kept daily advised of all of the factors of importance in the international situation. Please make it a point to have the Embassy send telegraphic reports to the Department of all information of significance obtained from government officials or from your colleagues in the Diplomatic Corps, together with excerpts and summaries from the press whenever these latter are in your judgment significant.
