4060. Regarding urtel No. 950, November 5. Both AFHQ and AC are disappointed with Department’s decision on retention of AMG in Bolzano Province and although Dept has informed CCS of action to be taken on SACMED’s recommendation I hope Dept will give further consideration to this matter and revert to its position as set forth in its number 1376 of August 18 to Rome.
