Your 437, August 2, 4 p.m. I have just received through French Ambassador, London, and our Embassy, Paris, official invitation to Supreme Council which will meet in Paris Monday August 8th, during the session of which myself and staff are to be guests of the French Government. I have accepted through same channels and will leave London Saturday morning accompanied by Wright,¹⁴ Lane¹⁵ and two stenographers.
