Memorandum of Conversation, by the Chief of the Division of Controls (Green)
The Iranian Minister called me by telephone this morning. He told me that he and officers of the Iranian purchasing mission had had a very satisfactory conference with Captain Collins, Chief of the Procurement Division of the Treasury, and that Captain Collins had asked him to furnish detailed descriptions of the planes and contact mines which his Government desires to purchase and had offered to obtain, for the Minister, as soon as possible, a statement of the prices at which these arms could be purchased and of the dates on which they could be delivered. He thanked me profusely for having arranged the conference and said that he felt that the difficulties which the purchasing mission had encountered were now in the way of solution.
