A report to the Director General Middle East Supply Centre, August 1945. "From the short-term point of view the work of the Mission had a direct bearing on the immediate war-time problems of supply and production facing the Centre, and part of the time of its members was necessarily devoted to advising the Centre, and sometimes the Administrations of the Middle East countries, on current problems. Neverthelss, much of the ground covered by their survey involved fundamental questions of longer-term importance. Indeed, one of the main underlying objects in securing the appointment of the Mission was the desire - strongly felt in a number of quarters - to obtain a comprehensive and objective appreciation of some of the main scientific and technical problems facing the Middle East region." Taken from preface. (When referring to this item please quote stockid 74738)
