Letter from Prime Minister Menzies

Letter from Prime Minister Sir Robert Menzies to Sir Keith Smith regarding the possible transfer of the Vickers Vimy from the Australian War Memorial to Adelaide.

Menzies states that he is of the opinion that if the aircraft was moved to Adelaide it would 'merely be on loan to the city until such time as we could find an adequate and permanent resting place for such an historic object.'
