The Consul-General of ——— in Ottawa would be very grateful if Your Excellency would authorize the departure from France of his sister Madame (POLKA ?), whose husband was killed in 1940. Her address is:

c/o Madame ———, Navarrenx, bas Pyrenees.

She will rejoin her brother here who will obtain Canadian and American visas, or else they will return to live with their relations in ———.

The recent agreements signed by the Japanese Minister KATO concerning Indo-China have evoked considerable international comment. These explanations will enable you to appreciate the value of the accord. They have been delayed owing to the uncertainties of the internal situation in France.

France has (endeavoured ?) to protect Indo-China against the dangers to which the country has been exposed since June 1940. (We thought ?) that the control of our possessions would be of interest to the United States, but they seemed preoccupied and did nothing at all.
