The Consul General at Casablanca (Goold) to the Secretary of State

185. There is now here a permanent German delegate controlling the port and shipping movements. He has taken a house very near to this office, and (jokingly, I of course presume) expressed his pleasure to the Commissioner of the administrative police over his fortunate location which would help him and his secretary to keep an eye on the comings and goings here. But, joke or no joke, the Commissioner wants this kept strictly confidential.

Repeated to Tangier.

Goold
