To: French Ambassador, Washington.
Message No. 1606.
The couriers ${ }^{x}$ to whom your ambassador has given the diplomatie pouch for Vichy have been asking for payments to cover their expenses when they reach France. This practice is not allowed under the chapter "couriers and the diplomatic pouch", and hence comes immediately under the authority of the cabinet. Furthermore, I would request the ambassador to use as couriers only those of our compatriots who -----. If you do give the diplomatic pouch to them please give them in advance enough money to cover their expenses.

Message No. 331.

My daughter is keeping her account with --- Avenue Kleber (Paris) and so I would be very grateful if you could make an exception and send her 30,000 francs, advising them beforehand.

If there is no objection I am asking our consul in Montreal to let me have the rest of my September salary of (30,666 ?) francs from his cash on hand.

Message No. 214.

On the authority of the accompanying telegram would you please request your "agents" and those under your authority as well as those connected with the consular posts related to your mission, to reproduce in their own hand writing, in duplicate, signed and dated, the form of the oath as stated to you. On account of the delays such documents will experience in reaching the Department, I would request you to let me know immediately by telegraph that you and those under your authority (list ----) have taken the oath. Would you also let me know the names of those who refuse?

DALLAN.
