The Secretary of State to the Minister in Egypt (Kirk)
604. Your 438, March 2, 11 a.m. Personal for the Minister from Murray. In connection with our continuing efforts to resolve questions arising in regard to the availability of two planes for Misr Airworks it would prove helpful to ascertain, with reference to the Department’s no. 593, April 29, 5 p.m., whether these planes may or may not be regarded as included among “warlike and other stores”.
It is assumed that Misr Airworks still desires these planes from the United States and has not made arrangements to secure them from other sources. [Murray.]
