The Chief of the Division of Near Eastern Affairs (Murray) to the Chief of the Iranian Trade and Economic Commission (Saleh)

My Dear Mr. Saleh: Reference is made to your letter of February 24, 1942 regarding the possibility of assistance by this Government in furnishing wheat for Iran. As you are aware as a result of subsequent conversations with you regarding this matter, the question which you have raised is being given careful consideration.

Sincerely yours,

Wallace Murray
