No. 74237, 425 (2 part message)

Referring to my telegram No. 424, paragraph 2.

I have the impression, after having conversed discreetly about it with Count JORDANE and not without endeavoring to check his statements, that the affair might be reduced to this:

Several times since the month of April the Spanish Government has asked the German military authorities to remove from the vicinity of the Basque and Catalan frontiers the "Reds" who are employed in large numbers, it appears, on (7publis?) works in the southwestern part of France.

By a sort of counterstrokes to this measure, --10-- according to what I have heard elsewhere, the Germans at this time urged the Spanish Government to gather together on its territory 140,000 "Reds" who are still in France and whose very presence, (? if they were retained there?) would be --13-- undesirable, as would also be their transfer to Germany. The Spanish Government is said to have agreed to this, though with displeasure and resistance, and is supposedly already preparing concentration camps in the north to shelter and feed them.

I should be interested to learn from Your Excellency if this second item of information is accurate, while I endeavor to verify the first one.

a - Available if requested.
