PERSONNEL OF A COMMERCIAL AGENCY. THE SURVEY FLIGHT WOULD NOT BE
IN LIEU OF THE CONVERSATIONS BY OUR JOINT ARMY, NAVY AND AIR
REPRESENTATIVES WHICH I RECOMENDED IN MY TELEGRAM OF JUNE
SEVENTEENTH, BUT WOULD BE CONDUCTED FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF
ENABLING THOSE REPRESENTATIVES TO COMMENCE THEIR DISCUSSIONS
WITH A MORE DEFINITE AND DETAILED INFORMATION OF THE PROBLEMS
INVOLVED THAN WOULD OTHERWISE BE THE CASE.
