Dear s aloolme
Thank you for your letter of 6 January 19. 4,), The first few days,
meager Tel Aviv copy from Cyprus indicates that the P.obrerw is largely
repetitious, that reception is not cospletely satisfactory with the
makeshift equipment at present used, but that progress ban been made
in training the staff. Advance operational experience will be a good
ttang for the new 8ursau, and the yield, I as sure, will be of in.
creasing value.
t oupletiot of construction and installation of equipment is es..
timated at 1 April, but a large portiere of the Cairo monitoring sob*&
ule will have been transferred considerably before that date. I as
anxious to bear of any progress you may have made in clearing the way
for a higher daily wordage on the Cyprus.?Londcn cable file.
Tkanks for your caution on the actionable aspect of the Lindberg
article. In that connectim, have you yet worked out with your legal
experts any proposed proosdurs to "insure maxi-' mutual protection
under the law? against such possible actions? A'e are relying a good
deal on your greater experience in this field.
3lncerely,
