2 No. 769. ooo/pol. The Acting Representative of the Hungarian Government at the Vatican, Mr, Kvassay, to the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Count Bánffy. [TRANSLATION! Code telegram No. 49. ROME, August 25, 1921. With reference to your code telegrams Nos. 33 and 34:® The Holy See after my new intervention suspended the nomination of an administrator of Esztergom and asked for information from Prague about the financial questions. They promised at the Secretary of State's Office that the name of the administrator to be appointed will be communicated beforehand to the Hungarian Government. It would facilitate my argumentations if I were informed of the proposal that the Prince Primate was to submit there, because the Holy See is not willing to delay the nomination for a longer period, fearing that if they do not grant this repeatedlyurged demand of the Czecho-Slovak Government, the latter may confiscate the whole property of the Esztergom diocese, as was the case in the diocese of Poroszló.
