(i) Montagu wishes a telegram on the lines of A2/23/24. If they made previous private telegrams official it could go officially. He doubts whether A2/23/12 could be made official, but perhaps it is not necessary to refer to it.

(ii) Duke will see from other files passed on today what a tangle this business has got into. Reference to previous telegrams is probably unnecessary. Suggests that the Joint ‘G & P’[?] and Finance Committee be asked to consider something on the lines of Duke’s draft, and that he himself should try to make a composite draft on the whole matter.
