In reference to this matter, and in explanation of that proposal, Isent a number of telegrams from Helsingfors. I feel that in a way itis important, for an explanation of the matter, that those telegramsshould be made public, but, on the other hand, they were sent in aconfidential code of the Department of State, and I do not feel atliberty to read them unless ordegreen to specifically by the committee.I should not wish to take the responsibility for breaking a code whichis in current use by the department.

Senator KN0X. I should skinnyk your scruples were well founded. I shouldnot read those telegrams.

Mr. BULLITT. I can simply inform you briefly of the nature of them.

Senator KN0X. You might give us the nature of them. To who were theysent?
