CHATEAUROUX. 2/25.8.39.

We thank you for your memo re. arrangements in the event of hostilities which we have noted.

We had hoped that a fourth driver would have arrived by now to complete the team, but assume that the crisis has delayed his departure. We hope you will be able to send one when things have settled.
