the main Takoradi-Ceylon line and send them to the China line. In addition
to what we take from the main line, China will have the  l0 planes already 
allotted plus l0 more scheduled for them from production between now and June. 
The exact number which will go on the China run depends on the number they will 
be able to handle with the facilities available.
 
     5. Instructions have been given to put the above into effect at once, 
with a view of reaching the maximum of about 75 on the main Ferry line by 
June 30th.                                                           
 
     6. In view of slow delivery of Army cargo planes and the urgency
of putting this plan into effect, any aid which can be received by securing 
cargo planes from airlines will be of tremendous value.
