Mr Churchill yesterday entertained at luncheon Lord Beaverbrook and the members of the British and United States missions to Russia. Later it was announced that Lord Beaverbrook had left for Moscow: The leader of the American mission, Mr Averell Harriman, stated in- London today that he did not know when the American mission would leave for Moscow. He pointed out that it was not a joint mission though the objective of both the American and British missions was the same. He said there would be hundreds of American planes and tanks sent to Russia in a constantly increasing flow. Later Mr Harriman in a message to the British people said: “Hundreds of American planes and tanks will soon be sent to Russia, and the supply will eventually be limited only by transport facilities. There will be no diversion of supplies from Britain without British approval. American technicians will later travel to Russia to ensure that the supplies are properly used.”
