YOUR TELNO 1468: PUBLIC ORDER ORDINANCE

1.

WE AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE USEFUL TO SEND COPIES OF YOUR RECENT GUIDANCE TELEGRAM TO OUR MAIN WESTERN EUROPEAN POSTS. WE ALSO FEEL IT WOULD BE HELPFUL TO PROVIDE THEM WITH THE GENERAL LINE DEPLOYED IN RESPONSE TO THE CPU'S AND FCC'S TELEXES TO THE SECRETARY OF STATE (FCO TELNO 853). WE HAVE ALREADY SENT BOTH TELEGRAMS TO PARIS (IN RESPONSE TO EARLIER QUERIES BY FRENCH NEWSPAPERS) AND ARE NOW SENDING COPIES BY BAG TO CHANCERIES IN BRUSSELS, THE HAGUE, BONN AND UKMIS GENEVA.
