DEPARTMENT INCOMING DIVISION OF OF CENTRAL SERVICES STATE TELEGRAM TELEGRAPH SECTION DMH-1813 Vatican City This telegram must be closely paraphrased be- Dased May 22, 1945 fore being communicated anyone. (SECRIT) Recid 12:57 p.m. . Secretary of State DECEASSIFIED E.O. 11652, Sec. 3(E) and 5(D) or (E) Washington Dept. of State letter, Aug. 10, 1972 BINITIMA NARS Date 725.75 117, May 22, 4 p.m. SECRET FOR PRESIDENT ONLY I have been told on what I consider very good authority that Italian cabinet may undergo reorgani- zation within next fortnight. It has been indicated that it is likely that De Gasperi will become Prime Minister. On other hand it is not impossible that Orlando will be drafted in view of complexity of sit- uation now that north of Italy has been released from enemy occupation. Difficulties which we forecast in. previous telegrams have to a greater or lesser extent arisen and there appears to be a very strong opposi- tion to present GOVT and a very strong opposition to monarchy itself. It is not believed, however, that latter is in danger at this timo. TAYLOR NPL
