File No. 659.110/430

The Ambassador in Great Britain ( Page) to the Secretary of State

[Telegram]

1104. War Trade Board [from Sheldon]:

No. 1234. State Department No. 716, August 10, 4 p.m. Have consulted British authorities who call attention to the fact that the telegram deals only with tonnage and so far as it goes it seems quite satisfactory to them. They regard as of extreme importance the other part of the agreement which relates to the limitation of exports to Germany. They have not heard from Washington the result of the discussion with regard to the latter and must await further advice [before] giving full concurrence.
