Message 1210

M. COUGHENCE directeur de la "French Telegraph Cable Co." m'a fait savoir que par suite d'une décision du "Defence Communications Board" de Washington, il avait été obligé de fermer hier ses bureaux. L'administration américaine se fond sur des motifs de "sécurité et de défense nationale" et interdit à la compagnie de transmettre et de regévoir aucun télégramme télégraphique.

M. COUGHENCE me fait observer qu'en outre son agence ne fonctionne plus depuis le 12 février dernier, date à laquelle le dernier câble New York-Fayal a été rompu dans des conditions non expliquées près de la côte américaine.

L'annonce de cette décision du "Defence Communication Board" a été publiée sans commentaire ce matin par les journaux américains.
