MEMORANDUM FOR MR. LOVETT:
 
 
      You remember some time ago the Army took 25 planes
 from the airlines, as I recall you put those recently into the 
Army service and sent to the African Ferry Service 25 planes
 belonging the Army in their  stead.
 
      Today I have a memorandum dated April 22 stating that
 the total number of planes in thetransport service in the African-
Asiatic Ferry routes are 37, of which 10 are in China, 17 in India,
2 en route and 4 scheduled to leave.
 
     I don't quite understand these figures because I assured you
 has substantial number oftransports in Africa itself going back
 and forth between Cairo and Takoradi.
 
 
 
 
                                         Harry L. Hopkins
