INCOMING TELEGRAM Department of State TELEGRAPH BRANCH PLAIN A 24-D Control: 14664 Action Rec'd: April 30, 1951 EUR FROM: Vienna 4 :16 p.m. Info TO: Secretary of State ARCHIVES RECORDS AMD SERVICE SS G NO: 2528, April 30. P SAM PRIORITY. OLI CIA Just before leaving Vienna Robert Vogeler requested me to IE forward the following message to President Truman on his DCR behalf: "I was not aware until reaching Vienna of the great crisis which was forced upon the United States and which occured during my imprisonment. It is amazing to me that with all your difficulties and troubles time was found to complete so successfully negotiations for my liberation. This is an example of the great solicitude our country has for every one of its humblest citizens. Pending my return to the United States I should appreciate your thanking the American people in my name for their confidence and continuing interest in my welfare."
