The Acting Secretary of State to the Chargé in Liberia (Hibbard)
Washington, October 7,
1942—11 p.m.
254. Your 314, September 30. War Department states that permission was granted to the British to refuel at Fisherman’s Lake and to station a few men in civilian clothes there but that it was not the intent of the War Department to grant the British anything in the way of a permanent or large-scale installation. War Department is discussing the matter with British air representatives in Washington and you will be advised as to the results.
