Memorandum by Mr. Charles W. Yost of the Division of Controls to the Chief of the Division (Green)
Mr. Green: Late Wednesday afternoon Mr. Welles informed me, in the presence of the Greek Minister, that 30 Curtiss P–40 pursuit planes would be made available to the Greek Government if it desires to purchase them. He asked me to make an appointment for the Minister to confer with Mr. Philip Young of the President’s Liaison Committee in order to settle such details as the price and the date of delivery of the planes. In Mr. Young’s absence, I made an appointment for the Minister to see Mr. Buckley of the Liaison Committee at 11 o’clock this morning. Later today Mr. Buckley informed me that he had seen the Minister and that the conversation had proceeded satisfactorily.
