[Telegram]

4489. Your 3275, August 8, 5 p. m. German Government accepts offer of Red Cross to send one or two hospital units to Germany, but [Page 958] suggests that only such doctors and nurses be sent who have a thorough knowledge of German language. The members of the unit would have to submit to German passport regulations on their entrance into Germany. German Government would be grateful if the unit could bring bandage material with them, and requests that it be informed at the earliest possible date of the departure of unit and any special desires as to its employment. Copy of note mailed.
