679. The following telegram has been sent to Algiers.
40. March 22, 10 p.m. For Murphy. Your No. 40, March 20, 3 p.m. French financial authorities should be informed $100,000 will be insufficient to cover even immediate needs and initial amount should be increased by at least another $150,000. Cost of refugee relief continues to rise and pending evacuation arrangements will involve large additional expenditures. Urgent necessity of making funds immediately available should be stressed as both French and American funds completely exhausted.
Repeated to Department.
