Message No. 1482

Je serais reconnaissant à V.E. de bien vouloir m'autoriser d'urgence de délivrer à Monsieur FRANCOIS JAMES le visa sollicité par mon télégramme 1414x.

La Croix Rouge américaine insiste en effet que son représentant spécial à Geneve puisse rejoindre son nouveau poste par le Clipper le 15 courant. Je rappelle à ce sujet que ... et la légation portugaise qui doivent également apposer leur visa sur le passeport de l'intéressé refuseront de faire droit à la requête de la Croix Rouge si nous n'avons pas délivré notre visa. Je serais heureux de pouvoir donner satisfaction à ... qui s'efforce de faire appareiller rapidement le "MONT EVEREST".
