No (737457)

From the Admiralty:

"Your no 4193 of 12 July and no 4316 of 15 July."

"1. As a result of your exposé of the electric power situation in the Saigon-Cholon district, I have decided to reverse my decision on the question of reserving to the Arsenal the whole of its electric power production. I am sending instructions accordingly to the Commanding Officer of the Navy of the Navy of Indochina.

"2. This is to inform you that I have notified the Commanding Officer of the Navy that it is impossible to authorize installation by the Navy of the unit 480 KVA, by which it had been planned to achieve electrical independence for the Arsenal, (if it is not made certain that this unit will be relatively safe, by placing it at a sufficient distance from the arsenal and from the densely-populated center of Saigon. If this condition, which is in keeping with the necessity for safety in case of bombing, cannot be met, I must decide against the proposed installation. It could be done by the Colony, with the full cooperation of the Navy.

"3. I request that you communicate the present message --IN-- to (the Commanding Officer of the Navy) --IN--."
