and what we can give of the B trajector 25's: I am convinced that 
bombers furnished must have adequate defensive armament and armor 
to be of use to Soviets and that their operating personnel are 
fully capable of flying and maintaining our best and latest equip-
ment. Based on above I urgently recommended that the U.S.S.R. be 
allotted 900 P trajectors 40 trajector E, 828 A trajector 20 and 
72 B 25's in the amounts of 100 bombers and 100 fighters per month 
beginning with October:
 
                    In addition to the 141 Tomahawks and 2 R.A.F. squadrons 
totaling 40 Hurricanes now operating on Russian front the British 
have shipped from England 100 Hurricanes in September and will 
ship 300 in October, all to arrive in Archangel before first week 
in November. Russians wish our aircraft shipped to Archangel as well 
for the present."
