My Dear Mr. Purvis:
 
      
 
 
By My letter of March 11, 1941, I authorized the transfer 
      of defense articles set forth in the annexed schedule to His 
      Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom.
 
      Pursuant to Section 4 of the Act of March 11, 1941, I hereby 
      consent to the use of those defense articles by either His Majesty's 
      Government in the United Kingdom, or by any of the Allied troops, 
      or such transfer of those defense articles by His Majesty's Government 
      in the United Kingdom to the Royal Yugoslav Government as the 
      representatives of His Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom 
      shall deem necessary.
 
      
 
 
Very sincerely yours,
 
      (Signed) Franklin D. Roosevelt
