138. For Secretary of State. Your 177, January 6th. Sherley, Chairman Appropriation Committee of the House, needs more information. [Page 710] He particularly wishes to know as to whether Great Britain and France are actually committed to contributing and how much they propose to contribute; also whether the appropriation could be used for relief in Armenia or whether it is limited to Europe. Sherley anticipates rather a hard time and would like all the information they could get.
