Manama, Bahrein
Dear Sir:
Please refer to your letter 0/83* of
June 15, 1942,
Today we had occasion to send a radio message
which departed in some decree from the regulations.
The pilot of the aircraft which was forced down
on Tarut Island was a little worried about the probable
results of his appearing unexpected in Bahrein. At his
request we referred to the special message which you aut ho ra
ized to be dispatched on June 16th and sent the following
message!
"FOR REYNOLDS - YOUR SPECIAL MESSAGE JUNE 16TH
ADVISE CHASE RUSH TO EXPECT DELAYED FRIENDS
THIS MORNING DAVIS"
It was with just such problems in mind that we
added paragraph 7 to our proposed Operating Instructions
for radio communications. I trust that we shall he able to
work out a happy solution to this problem which will avoid
all difficulties.
Yours very truly,
CALIFORNIA ARABIAN STANDARD OIL COMPANY
