1223. Department’s 507, August 17, 2 p.m. I have pressed Rochat37 on three separate occasions for a reply to our note requesting [Page 362] the renewal by the French Government of the assurance previously given and on the basis of which our Government agreed to resume the shipment of supplies to French North Africa.
Today Rochat informed me that I might expect his Government’s reply at an early date probably tomorrow August 23.
