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

Casablanca, July 10, 1940—3 p.m.
[Received July 10—1:58 p.m.]

67. In the event of war between Great Britain and France for which preparations are being made, our two British clerks are apprehensive of internment. I shall resist such a measure on the ground of our extraterritoriality in accordance with the views of Mr. Blake.³⁸ But I should appreciate instructions.

Goold

38. Maxwell Blake, Diplomatic Agent and Consul General at Tangier.
