When it receives the report from its Government, the Embassy will forward it to the State Department for transmission to Senator Kel- logg if the Department wielres to do so. It was said at the Embassy todnly that there was no censorship of cable messages and that the only requirements were that copies of all messages be filed with the officials within ten days after tire despolch of the original. This practice, it was stated, ob ‘sins in every country except the United States, and is regarded as ecessary to protect. the cable com- panies from imposition and also in insure accuracy. ~‘ Ambassador Geddes, who has been confined to iris bed by a touch oi‘ influenza was much improved today and expected to get to his office for a time.
