A file of correspondence and press extracts on Western journalists in Bulgaria. The file reports the visit of Ossia Trilling, a British correspondent covering the Bulgarian theatre for The Times. The Foreign Office found that the newspaper had asked him to go to Bulgaria; and that, despite the British legation's suspicions that Trilling was a fellow traveller, "nothing is known to his discredit." The file also discusses the visit of an American journalist; his success in getting interviews with senior members of the Bulgarian government; and the desire of the Bulgarian leader, Anton Yugov, to re-establish diplomatic relations with the United States.
