have insisted that we give Mr. Luns another temporising
reply which makes no reference to Air France or reduction
of other earriers' frequencies.
3. After consultation with the Secretary of State Lord
Chalfont spoke to Mr. Dell at the Board of Trade on
28 August and informed him that we would again stall if the
question were raised, but that the Secretary of State would
wish to pursue the matter with the President after Mr.
Iuns' visit. Mr. Dell tok note of the point and undertook
to report the conversation. Fe cannot therefore be any
more fortreoning with Mr. Lunes until agreement has been
reached at Ministerial level.
