I am very grateful to Your Excellency for the interesting and accurate information sent with the reports Numbers 9062, 9100 and 9104 of 9, 13 and 15 September about the international situation. (1)

I read with particular interest this last report relating to the conversation you had with M. Bonnet during which you were able, very opportunely, to draw attention to the work done by the Holy See and which it will keep on doing to limit the present conflict.

I shall be grateful to you if you would continue to keep me informed on this grave subject.
