Union Secretary of War, Edwin Stanton observed that telegraph systems within the Union's communications effort needed new strong measures to keep the Union's war effort a priority. Military secrecy required constant, ongoing control, not the intermittent one that existed. Stanton appointed Edward Sanford, the head of the American Telegraph Company to a military supervisory position. Strict censorship of telegraph communications were needed. Stanton persuaded Congress to pass laws restricting "undesirable" messages to be found on telegraph lines.
