Ir,tt? ??4;i4 In accordance vith your requett ,1'010tel Goodfellow, Major Bruce and myself held a conforotae on the question of a communication system for Mt Office of Strategic Services. My report to you dated July 17 on this subJ was read and discussed. The basic principlIDs of such a system as outlined in the report were contirmad %nd agreed to by Colonel Goodfellow and Major Druce, Th point that was emphasized was that It depended upam an efficient and experienced man who would act as the communications officer. I believe that we can find such a man in the telegraph field. He undoubtedly will have a responsible position and it will be neat). for us to offer him some inducements. His e-xperitindto must cover all phases of telegraph traffic and he know the circuits and the operating managers of various worldwide systems in order that we may Itto'n' through his contacts. You indicated that you woulei like. this plan with Colonel Goodfellow, Major- . ettrd Declassified and Approved For Release 2013/09/09: CIA-RDP13X00001R000100110006-6 ? . - Declassified and Approved For Release 2013/09/09 CIA-RDP13X00001R000100110006-6 v - GERMANS IN AFRICA Military P1, In view of the constant increase or armouted alsol motortuill forces as well as of air force in the gritiph armitos 10 the Near East, and especially in Lybia tanglhaS ordered Rommel to start immediately offensIve 410OratiO110* The aim of this offensive is: a - to weaken as much as possible the VIIItki Sitzt1 Army which, unless attacked now, might prove /ft the autumn a very serious danger to the Axis troops in North Africa. - to gain strategic success bi capturi all cost) and the HALFAYA range. It is not until these two important strategic regions are captured that convenient conditions will be crested for a similar offensive against SUEZ. According from information not from the OKW (source not given) operations against TOBRUK will consist of a powerful attack by the Axis armoured forces, synchronized with large-scale air-borne troop operations from ClIETE. Italo-German forces in LYBIA now amount to about 200.000 men, of which two fifths are German and three fifths are Italian. Rommells plans (which supplement the 0.K.W. plan aiming only at the capture of TUBRUK and HALFAYA) are to break through the British army already at this stage of opera tions and to reach SUEZ. ROMMEL disregards all orders of the O.K.W. and does that which he regards as indicated. His behaviour is secretely supported by HITLER and for this reason be cannot be called to account. elease 2013/09/09 CIA-RDP13X00001R000100110006-6 Declassified and Approved For Release 2013/09/09: CIA-RDP13X00001R000100110006-6 ; f=piOme A .( )1 Ali 4' AO 441 )6"ii 6,4 .04 jo Our Polish friends handed me today a mamorandum they have just rece.Ved from Lama= entitled: "Germans in'Africa : Military Plan t% This was dated May 28, 1g420 which was the date the information was forwarded from London.

These cables simply have the branch tndlcation at tho top and no names are used since the subjeot emanates not from an Indual but from the branch itself* It is important that reference cable numbers be Included at all times. This is especially Important if 14 is a direct answer to a cable, but also when it is simply the same subject as in another cable. Cables should at all times be as brief as possible) not only for the saving thereon, but because in most cases It makes for greater clarity, Cables should be as impersonal as possible; names of sender and addressee should not be included except where they have specific bearing on the material in the cable; use of the first person singular should be discouraged. In ether words, cables should emanate not from an individual but rather from the office itself. The distribution of the cable desired by the Composer shou/a be listed in lower loft-hand corner specifying who is responsible for action and who should see for information..
