DEFENCE CONTRIBUTION

1. This is most encouraging news and we can

agree to the proposed change in base date from

review of agreement April 1970 to April 1971 for the purposes of

paragraph 3(A)(1) of FCO telegram No. 553.

2. Your paragraph 6. Grateful if you will

télegraph immediately in the event that opposition

to the arrangement seems likely to grow to a

point where possibility of your having to use

official majority becomes a live issue.
