Declaration of the public policy of the United States.
In the interpretation of this Act and in determining the jurisdiction and authority of the courts of the United States, as such jurisdiction and authority are herein defined and limited, the public policy of the United States is hereby declared as follows:
Whereas under prevailing economic conditions, developed with the aid of governmental authority for owners of property to organize in the corporate and other forms of ownership association, the individual unorganized worker is commonly helpless to exercise actual liberty of contract and to protect his freedom of labor, and thereby to obtain acceptable terms and conditions of employment, wherefore, though he should be free to decline to associate with his fellows, it is necessary that he have full freedom of association, self-organization, and designation of representatives of his own choosing, to negotiate the terms and conditions of his employment, and that he shall be free from the interference, restraint, or coercion of employers of labor, or their agents, in the designation of such representatives or in self-organization or in other concerted activities for the purpose of collective bargaining or other mutual aid or protection; therefore, the following definitions of, and limitations upon, the jurisdiction and authority of the courts of the United States are hereby enacted.
Promise, etc., contrary thereto not enforceable in courts.
Any undertaking or promise, such as is described in this section, or any other undertaking or promise in conflict with the public policy declared in section 2 of this Act, is hereby declared to be contrary to the public policy of the United States, shall not be enforceable in any court of the United States and shall not afford any basis for the granting of legal or equitable relief by any such court, including specifically the following:

Before entering upon the discharge of his duties he must file such undertaking, so approved, together with his oath that he will faithfully perform the duties of his office.
If it appear from the marshal’s return, or from the commissioner’s report, that the proceeds are insufficient, and a balance still remains due, judgment must then be docketed by the clerk in the manner provided in this code for such balance against the defendant or defendants personally liable for the debt. No person holding a conveyance from or under the mortgager of the property mortgaged, or having a lien thereon, which conveyance or lien does not appear of record in the office of the registrar of property at the time of the commencement of the action, need be made a party to such action, and the judgment therein rendered, and the proceedings therein had, are as conclusive against the party holding such unrecorded conveyance or lien as if he had been a party to the action.
If the court appoint a commissioner for the sale of the property, he must sell it in the manner provided by law for the sale of like property by the marshal upon execution; and the provisions of sections 349 to 386 are hereby made applicable to sale made by such Ante, p. 968.

Undertaking on appeal.
An appeal from a magistrate’s court is not effectual for any purpose, unless an undertaking be filed with two or more sureties in the sum of $25 for the payment of the costs on the appeal, or, if a stay of proceedings be claimed, in the sum of $25 plus a sum equal to the amount of the judgment, including costs, when the judgment is for the payment of money; or plus twice the value of the property including costs, when the judgment is for the recovery of specific personal property; and must be conditioned, when the action is for the recovery of money, that the appellant will pay the amount of the judgment appealed from, and all costs, if the appeal be withdrawn or dismissed, or the amount of any judgment and all costs that may be recovered against him in the action in the district court.
When the action is for the recovery of or to enforce or foreclose a lien on specific personal property, the undertaking must be conditioned that the appellant will pay the judgment and costs appealed from, and obey the order of the court made therein, if the appeal be withdrawn or dismissed, or any judgment and costs that may be recovered against him in said action in the district court, and will obey any order made by the court therein.
When the judgment appealed from directs the delivery of possession of real property, the execution of the same can not be stayed unless a written undertaking be executed on the part of the appellant, with two or more sureties, to the effect that during the possession of such property by the appellant, he will not commit, or suffer to be committed any waste thereon, and that if the appeal be dismissed or withdrawn, or the judgment affirmed, or judgment be recovered against him in the action in the district court, he will pay the value of the use and occupation of the property from the time of the appeal until the delivery of possession thereof; or that he will pay any judgment and costs that may be recovered against him in said action in the district court, not exceeding a sum to be fixed by the magistrate of the court from which the appeal is taken, and which sum must be specified in the undertaking.
A deposit of the sum of $50 plus the amount of the judgment, including all cost appealed from, or plus the value of the property, including all costs, in actions for the recovery of specific personal property, with the magistrate, is equivalent to the filing of the undertaking, and in such cases the magistrate must transmit the money to the clerk of the district court to be by him paid out on the order of the court.

Si en el momento de entrar en vigor el Convenio un país no puede conceder la gratuidad de tránsito porque se opongan a ello estipulaciones de contratos vigentes celebrados con anterioridad, ese país se compromete a modificar tales contratos a fin de hacer efectiva, a la mayor brevedad posible, dicha gratuidad. Todos los contratos que sean renovados o los que en lo futuro se celebren, deberán asegurar la completa gratuidad del tránsito para la correspondencia transportada en los buques a que afecten dichos contratos, entre los diversos puertos del territorio postal américoespañol, así como entre éstos y los de países extraños a la Unión.
No obstante la vigencia de aquellos contratos que impidan la aplicación del principio de gratuidad de tránsito, ninguna Administración postal podrá formular cuentas por gastos de tránsito marítimo, relativas al transporte de correspondencia a que afecten los aludidos contratos.
El Protocolo permanece abierto a favor de los países de .América cuyos representantes no hayan suscrito el Convenio, o que, habiendo firmado éste, deseen adherirse a los otros Acuerdos sancionados por el Congreso.

If, at the time when the Convention enters into force, a country cannot concede gratuity of transit because stipulations of existing contracts concluded previously are opposed to it, that country obligates itself to modify such contracts so as to make said gratuity effective as soon as possible. All contracts which are renewed or those which may be concluded in the future shall assure complete gratuity of transit for correspondence transported in ships which are affected by said contracts, between the various ports of the Americo-Spanish postal territory, as well as between the latter and those of countries foreign to the Union.
In spite of the existence of those contracts which impede the application of the principle of gratuity of transit, no Postal Administration may present accounts for maritime transit charges relative to the transportation of correspondence affected by the aforesaid contracts.
The Protocol remains open in favor of the countries of America whose representatives have not signed the Convention, or which, having signed the Convention, desire to adhere to the other Agreements sanctioned by the Congress.

Preparation of parcels.
Le nom et l’adresse de l’expéditeur et du destinataire doivent être écrits d’une façon lisible et exacte, si possible sur le colis même ou sur une étiquette fixée solidement à l’envoi.
Il est recommandé d’insérer un double de l’adresse dans chaque colis, surtout lorsque l’usage d’une étiquette volante est rendu nécessaire par le conditionnement ou par la forme de l’envoi.
Les colis dont l’adresse de l’expéditeur ou du destinataire consiste en initiales seulement ne sont pas admis, exception faite des désignations commerciales (raisons sociales) composées d’initiales.
Les adresses au crayon ne sont pas admises. Sont toutefois acceptées les adresses écrites au crayon-encre, sur un fond préalablement mouillé.
Les colis contenant des espèces monnayées, de l’or ou de argent en barres, des pierreries ou autres matières précieuses doivent toujours être expédiés avec déclaration de valeur.
Lorsqu’un colis contenant des objets de l’espèce est expédié sans déclaration de valeur, l’office postal qui remarque l’erreur en Regulations—Contd.
Chaque colis doit être emballé de manière que le contenu soit préservé pendant toute la durée du transport. Les colis avec valeur déclarée doivent être scellés par des cachets à la cire, par des plombs ou par un autre moyen équivalent. Pour les colis ordinaires, un ficelage soigneux suffit comme moyen de fermeture, mais ils peuvent aussi être scellés.
Comme mesure de sécurité, chaque Administration peut exiger qu’une empreinte ou marque spéciale de l’expéditeur figure sur les plombs ou cachets de fermeture des colis avec valeur déclarée.
L’Administration des douanes du pays de destination est autorisée à ouvrir les colis. A cet effet, les cachets ou toute autre fermeture peuvent être brisés ou rompus. Les envois ouverts par la douane doivent être reformés et, en outre, scellés d’office, si l’expéditeur les avait scellés.
Regulations—Contd.
Dispatch notes and customs declarations.
Pour chaque colis ou expédition collective de trois colis ordinaires au plus, destinés à la même personne et soumis à la même bonification, l’expéditeur doit remplir un bulletin d’expédition et une déclaration en douane conformes aux formules en usage dans le pays d’origine.
Les bulletins d’expédition doivent porter les indications suivantes: bureau de dépôt, nom et adresse de l’expéditeur, nombre des déclarations en douane, poids, port payé, nom et adresse du destinataire et bureau de destination. Pour les colis avec valeur déclarée, le numéro (insurance number) et le montant de la valeur déclarée doivent aussi figurer sur le bulletin d’expédition.
Les déclarations en douane doivent fournir les indications suivantes: description générale du colis, mention exacte et détaillée du contenu, valeur, poids brut, date d’expédition, nom et adresse de l’expéditeur et du destinataire et pays d’origine de la marchandise.

Les bulletins d’expédition et les déclarations en douane afférents aux colis originaires des Etats-Unis d’Amérique sont expédiés le plus rapidement possible, par la poste aux lettres, au bureau d’échange suisse, avec l’original de la feuille de route correspondante.
Exchange of parcels.
Les colis sont échangés dans des sacs clos au moyen de cachets ou de plombs, entre les bureaux désignés par les Administrations. Ils sont transmis au pays de destination aux frais du pays d’origine et de la manière qui convient à ce dernier.
Le poids de chaque sac ne doit pas dépasser 50 kg.
Les colis ordinaires et les colis avec valeur déclarée sont compris dans des sacs spéciaux, chaque catégorie séparément.
De plus, dans la direction Suisse-Etats-Unis, il est fait une distinction entre les colis pour les Etats-Unis et les colis en transit.
Les fiches des sacs contenant des colis avec valeur déclarée doivent porter la lettre “V”.

Les colis ordinaires compris dans chaque dépêche à destination des Etats-Unis d’Amérique sont inscrits sur les feuilles de route par la seule mention du nombre total des colis et de leur poids net total.
Regulations—Contd.
Les colis renvoyés à l’origine ou réexpédiés sont inscrits isolément.
Le mode de procéder détaillé et le mode exact d’inscription et de transmission des colis en transit, c’est-à-dire à destination de tiers pays, ou des récipients qui les renferment, seront fixés par arrangement réciproque, par voie de correspondance.
Les colis avec valeur déclarée sont inscrits isolément et sur des feuilles de route distinctes, avec indication du numéro (insurance number) et du nom du bureau d’origine.
Pour les colis avec valeur déclarée à destination de la Suisse, les feuilles de route doivent porter aussi l’indication de la coupure de poids à laquelle les colis appartiennent, le total des bonifications, ainsi que le nombre total des sacs servant à l’expédition desdits colis.
Pour les colis avec valeur déclarée à destination des Etats-Unis d’Amérique, les feuilles de route doivent porter, en outre, l’indication du poids net total des colis, le total des bonifications, ainsi que le nombre total des sacs servant à l’expédition desdits colis.
Regulations—Contd.
Les feuilles de route sont établies en double exemplaire. L’original est expédié par la poste aux lettres, tandis que le duplicata est inséré dans l’un des sacs. L’office d’échange des Etats-Unis joint, en outre, les papiers d’accompagnement à l’original de la feuille de route (voir aussi § 2).
Le sac renfermant la feuille de route est désigné par la lettre “F” tracée d’une manière apparente sur l’étiquette.

for the Agreement concerning the Exchange

concluded between

Preparation of parcels.
The name and address of the sender and of the addressee must be written, legibly and correctly, if possible on the parcel itself, or on a label affixed securely to the parcel.
It is recommended that a duplicate of the address be inclosed in every parcel, especially when the use of a tag is rendered necessary by the packing or form of the parcel.
Parcels on which the name of the sender or of the addressee is indicated merely by initials are not admitted, except in the case of commercial designations (trade names) composed of initials.
Addresses in pencil are not admitted. However, addresses written in indelible pencil on a previously dampened surface are accepted.
Parcels containing coins, gold or silver in bars, precious stones, or other precious articles, must always be sent insured.
When a parcel containing coin, gold or silver in bars, precious stones or other precious articles is sent uninsured through error, Regulations—Contd.
Each parcel must be packed in such a manner that the contents are protected over the whole route. Insured parcels must be sealed with wax or lead or by some equivalent means. For ordinary parcels, careful tying is sufficient as a mode of closing, but they may also be sealed.
As a protective measure, either Administration may require that a special imprint or mark of the sender appear on the wax or lead seals closing insured parcels.
The Customs Administration of the country of destination is authorized to open the parcels. To that end, the seals or any other fastenings may be broken. Parcels opened by the customs must be refastened and also officially sealed, if the sender has sealed them.
Regulations—Contd.
Dispatch notes and customs declarations.
For each parcel or collective shipment of not more than three uninsured parcels addressed to the same person and subject to the same payment, the sender must make out a dispatch note and a customs declaration in accordance with the forms in use in the country of origin.
The dispatch notes must bear the following information: Office of mailing, name and address of the sender, number of customs declarations, weight, postage paid, name and address of the addressee, and office of destination. For insured parcels, the number and the amount of the insured value must also appear on the dispatch note.
The customs declaration must show the following information: General description of the parcel, exact and detailed description of the contents, value, gross weight, date of mailing, name and address of the sender and addressee and country of origin of the merchandise.
The dispatch notes and Regulations—Contd.
The dispatch notes and customs declarations relating to parcels originating in the United States of America are sent as rapidly as possible in the letter mails to the Swiss exchange office with the original of the corresponding parcel bill.
Exchange of parcels.
The parcels are exchanged in sacks closed by means of wax or lead seals, between the offices designated by the Administrations. They are transmitted to the country of destination at the expense of the country of origin and in a manner convenient to the latter.
The weight of each sack must not exceed 50 kilograms.
Ordinary parcels and insured parcels are included in special sacks, each class separately.
Moreover, in the direction from Switzerland to the United States, a distinction is made between parcels for the United States and parcels in transit.
The labels of the sacks containing insured parcels must bear the letter “V”.
Entry of the parcels.
The ordinary parcels included in each dispatch sent to Switzerland are to be entered in bulk on the parcel bills, but by classes of parcels up to 1 kilogram, from 1 to 5 kilograms, from 5 to 10 kilograms, from 10 to 15 kilograms, and from 15 to 20 kilograms.
The ordinary parcels included in each dispatch sent to the United States of America are to be entered on the parcel bills to show the total number of parcels and the total net weight thereof.
Regulations—Contd.
Redirected or returned parcels shall be entered individually.
The detailed mode of procedure and the exact manner of entry and transmission of transit parcels, i. e., those destined for third countries, or of the receptacles containing them, will be fixed by reciprocal agreement, through correspondence.
Insured parcels shall be entered individually on separate parcel bills to show the insurance number and the name of the office of origin.
In the case of insured parcels for Switzerland, the parcel bills must also show the indication of the division of weight to which the parcel belongs, the total amount to be credited, and the total number of sacks in which the parcels are dispatched.
In the case of insured parcels for the United States of America, the parcel bills must also show the total net weight of the parcels and the total amount to be credited as well as the total number of sacks in which the parcels are dispatched.
Regulations—Contd.
The parcel bills are prepared in duplicate. The original is sent in the regular mails, while the duplicate is inserted in one of the sacks. The United States exchange office also attaches the accompanying papers to the original of the parcel bill (see also Section 2).
The sack containing the parcel bill is designated by the letter “F”, traced in a conspicuous manner on the label.
Payments.
By Switzerland.
Rate by weight:
70 gold centimes per kilogram, based on the bulk net weight of each dispatch.
This rate applies also to parcels for Alaska. The rate is reduced to 35 gold centimes per kilogram for parcels for Porto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, Samoa, and Hawaii.
Rate by value (in the case of insured parcels) in addition to the rate by weight:
10 gold centimes per parcel with insured value up to 500 gold francs (100 dollars).

Annex to the Convention.
Seront rapatriés directement:
Seront hospitalisés:
Annex—Continued.
Seront rapatriés les prisonniers de guerre hospitalisés en pays neutre qui appartiennent aux catégories suivantes:
Seront rapatriés:
Annex—Continued.
Annex—Continued.
Les prisonniers de guerre doivent être hospitalisés s’ils sont atteints des affections suivantes:
toutes les formes—nécessitant un traitement—d’affections des organes respiratoires, circulatoires, digestifs, génitourinaires, nerveux, des organes des sens, des appareils locomoteur et cutané, à condition, toutefois, que Annex—Continued.
Il y a lieu de considérer tout spécialement les troubles nerveux dont les causes efficientes ou déterminantes sont les événements de la guerre ou de la captivité même, comme la psychasthénie des prisonniers de guerre et autres cas analogues.
Tous les cas de ce genre dûment constatés doivent être hospitalisés, pour autant que leur gravité ou leurs caractères constitutionnels n’en font pas des cas de rapatriement direct.
Les cas de psychasthénie des prisonniers de guerre qui ne sont pas guéris après trois mois d’hospitalisation en pays neutre ou qui, après ce délai, ne sont pas manifestement en voie de guérison définitive, devront être rapatriés.
Annex—Continued.
Les conditions fixées ci-dessus doivent, d’une façon générale, être interprétées et appliquées dans un esprit aussi large que possible.
Cette largeur d’interprétation doit être appliquée particulièrement aux états névropathiques ou psychopathiques causés ou déterminés par les événements de la guerre ou de la captivité même (psychasthénie des prisonniers de guerre), ainsi qu’aux cas de tuberculose à tous les degrés.
Il va de soi que les médecins de camp et les commissions médicales mixtes peuvent se trouver en présence d’une foule de cas non mentionnés parmi les exemples donnés sous chiffre II, ou de cas ne s’adaptant pas à ces exemples. Les exemples mentionnés ci-dessus ne sont donnés que comme exemples typiques; une liste analogue d’exemples d’altérations chirurgicales n’a pas été établie parce que, abstraction faite des cas incontestables par leur nature même (amputations), il est difficile de dresser une liste de types particuliers; l’expérience a démontré qu’un exposé de ces cas particuliers n’était pas sans inconvénients dans la pratique.
On résoudra tous les cas ne s’adaptant pas exactement aux exemples cités en s’inspirant de l’esprit des principes directeurs ci-dessus.
Annex to the Convention.
There shall be repatriated directly:
There shall be placed in hospitals:
Annex—Continued.
There shall be repatriated the prisoners of war hospitalized in a neutral country who belong to the following categories:
There shall be repatriated:
Annex—Continued.
Annex—Continued.
Prisoners of war must be hospitalized if they have the following affections:
All forms—necessitating treatment—of affections of the respiratory, circulatory, digestive, genitourinary, and nervous organs, of organs of the senses, of the locomotor and cutaneous apparatus; provided, however, that Annex—Continued.
Nervous troubles, the efficient or determinant causes of which are the events of the war or even of the captivity itself, such as the psychasthenia of prisoners of war and other analogous cases, should be given special consideration.
All duly verified cases of this kind should be hospitalized, provided that the seriousness or constitutional character thereof does not make them cases for direct repatriation.
Cases of psychasthenia of prisoners of war which are not cured after three months of hospitalization in a neutral country or which, after this period has expired, are not obviously on the road to final recovery, should be repatriated.
Annex—Continued.
The conditions given above should, generally speaking, be interpreted and applied in as broad a spirit as possible.
This breadth of interpretation should be especially applied to neuropathic or psychopathic conditions caused or brought to a head by the events of the war or even of the captivity itself (psychasthenia of prisoners of war), and also to cases of tuberculosis in all degrees.
It is needless to state that camp physicians and the mixed medical commissions may find themselves confronted with a great number of cases not mentioned among the examples given under Section II, or cases not fitting in with these examples. The examples mentioned above are given only as typical examples: an analogous list of examples of surgical alterations has not been drawn up because, with the exception of cases incontestable by their very nature (amputations), it is difficult to make a list of particular types; experience has shown that a recital of these particular cases was not without disadvantages in practice.
All cases not fitting exactly into the examples cited shall be decided by invoking the spirit of the above governing principles.

In reply I am happy to confirm the correctness of your understanding, as above recited, of the equality of treatment which is now accorded under the tariff laws of the United States, and will continue to be accorded under the most-favored-nation provision of the treaty, to Norwegian sardines.
Accept, Sir, the renewed assurances of my highest consideration.

Preparation of parcels.
The name and address of the sender and of the addressee must be legibly and correctly written in every case when possible on the parcel itself, or on a label gummed thereto, and, in the case of parcels addressed by tag only because of their shape or size, must also be written on a separate slip which slip must be enclosed in the parcel; such address slips should be enclosed in all parcels.

Every parcel shall be packed in a manner adequate for the length of the journey and for the protection of the contents. Ordinary parcels may be closed by means of wax, lead seals, or otherwise.
Insured parcels must be closed and securely sealed with wax or otherwise, but the country of destination shall have the right to open them as well as ordinary parcels (including the right to break the seals) in order to inspect the contents. Parcels which have been so opened shall be closed again and officially sealed, except that in the case of ordinary parcels they need not be sealed if they were not sealed by the sender in the first instance.
Either Administration may require a special impress or mark of the sender in the sealing of insured parcels mailed in its service, as a means of protection.
Prohibitions.
Customs duties.
Method of exchanging parcels.
Billing of parcels.
The ordinary parcels included in each despatch are to be entered on the parcel bills to show the total number of parcels and the total net weight thereof.

The bulk net weight of all the insured parcels must also be shown.

Responsibility not accepted.
Insurance.
The sender of a parcel may have the same insured by paying in addition to the postage such insurance fee as is prescribed by the country of origin, and in the event of loss, rifling or damage, indemnity shall be paid for the actual amount, based on the actual value at the time and place of mailing, of the loss, rifling, or damage up to a sum not exceeding one hundred dollars, when mailed in the United States of America, or five thousand mark, when mailed in Finland.
No insured parcel shall be idemnified for an amount above the real value of its contents.
Both Administrations reserve the right to arrange by mutual agreement through correspondence for a higher or lower limit of indemnity than that mentioned in this Convention.
The insurance of all parcels containing coin, bank notes, paper money, bullion, jewelry, or any other precious article exchanged between the two Administrations is obligatory.
If a parcel containing coin, bank notes, paper money, bullion, jewelry, or any other precious article, is mailed uninsured, it shall be placed under insurance by the post office which first observes the fact of its having been mailed uninsured and treated in accordance with the regulations of the country placing the matter under insurance.
Return receipts and inquiries.
A fee may be charged, at the option of the country of origin, on a request for information as to the disposal of an ordinary parcel and also of an insured parcel made after it has been posted if the sender has not already paid the special fee to obtain an advice of delivery.
A fee may also be charged, at the option of the country of origin, in connection with any complaint of any irregularity which prima facie was not due to the fault of the Postal Service.
Except in cases of loss or damage through force majeure
Indemnity.
While, as stated in the preceding paragraph, the Administrations are not obligated to pay indemnity in the case of loss or damage due to force majeure, either Administration may, at its option and without recourse to the other Administration, pay indemnity for loss or damage due to force majeure even in the cases where the Administration of the country in the service of which the loss or damage occurred recognizes that the damage was due to force majeure.
Indemnity—Continued.
Indemnity—Continued.
Until the contrary is proved, responsibility for an insured parcel rests with the country which, having received the parcel without making any observation and being furnished all necessary particulars for inquiry, is unable to show its proper disposition.
If the loss, abstraction, or damage has occurred in the course of conveyance without its being possible to ascertain in which service the irregularity took place, the Postal Administrations concerned bear the loss in equal shares.

No other alternative is admissible. If the sender avails himself of this facility, his request must appear on the parcel and on the Customs Declaration tied to the parcel and must be in conformity with or analogous to one of the following forms:
“If not deliverable as addressedˍˍˍˍˍˍˍˍˍˍˍˍAbandon.”
“If not deliverable as addressedˍˍˍˍˍˍˍˍˍˍˍˍDeliver toˍˍˍˍˍˍ.”
Articles liable to deterioration or corruption, and these only, may, however, be sold immediately even on the outward or return journey, without previous notice or judicial formality, for the benefit of the right party.

Customs charges to be cancelled.
Retransmission.
When this retransmission involves the return of the parcels to the office of origin, the retransmitting office of exchange shall credit that office with the allowances received after having called attention to the error by means of a Verification Note.
In the contrary case, and if the amount allowed by the despatching office to the retransmitting office is insufficient to cover the expenses of retransmission which it had to defray, it shall recover the difference by making a suitable amendment to the parcel bill of the despatching office of exchange. The reason for this amendment shall be notified to the said office by means of a Verification Note.

These terminal credits may be reduced or increased on three months’ previous notice given by one country to the other. These reductions or increases shall hold good for at least one year.
The charges for reforwarding or return.
In case of reforwarding or return to a third country, the charges mentioned shall follow the parcel, but in case the third country concerned refuses to assume the charges, because they can not be collected from the addressee or sender, as the case may be, or for any other reason, they shall be charged back to the country of origin.
In the case of a parcel returned or redirected unpaid in transit through one of the two Administrations to or from the other, the intermediary office may claim also the sum due to it for any additional territorial or sea service provided, together with any amounts due to any other Administration or Administrations concerned.

Les seuils inférieurs des sabords de décharge doivent être aussi près du pont qu’il sera pratiquement possible et, de préférence ne doivent pas dépasser le can supérieur de la cornière gouttière. Les deuxtiers de la section totale réglementaire des sabords de décharge doivent se trouver dans la demilongueur du puits au milieu. Dans les navires dont la tonture est inférieure à la tonture réglementaire, la section totale des sabords de décharge doit être convenablement augmentée.

Des passerelles, des filières ou autres dispositifs satisfaisants doivent être prévus pour protéger l’équipage lorsqu’il entre dans son logement ou en sort. La solidité des roufs affectés au logement de l’équipage sur les navires à vapeur á pont découvert doit être équivalente à celle exigée pour les cloisons des superstructures.
La longueur employée dans les règles et dans les Tables de franc-bord est la longueur en mètres, mesurée au niveau de la flottaison correspondant au franc-bord d’été, depuis la face avant de l’étrave
the length is measured from the foreside of the stem to the axis of the rudder stock. For ships with cruiser sterns, the length is to be taken as 96 per cent, of the total length on the designed summer load water-line or as the length from the fore side of the stem to the axis of the rudder stock if that be the greater.
Breadth.
Moulded depth.
Depth of treeboard.
T is the mean thickness of the exposed deck clear of deck openings, and
S is the total length of superstructures as defined in Rule XL.

Le creux sur quille au livet est la distance verticale en mètres mesurée au milieu du navire depuis le dessus de quille jusqu’à la face supérieure du barrot au livet du pont de franc-bord. Dans les navires en bois et dans ceux de construction composite le creux est mesuré à partir de l’arête inférieure de la råblure de quille. Lorsque les formes de la partie inférieure du maître couple sont creuses, ou lorsqu’il existe des galbords épais, le creux au livet est mesuré depuis le point où le prolongement vers l’axe de la ligne tangente à la partie plate des fonds coupe le côté de la quille.
Le creux employé pour le calcul du franc-bord est le creux au livet augmenté de l’épaisseur de la tôle gouttière ou augmenté de

The coefficient c is not to be taken as less than .68.
Structural strength.
Ships which comply with the highest standard of the rules of a Classification Society recognised by the Administration, shall be regarded as having sufficient strength for the minimum freeboards allowed under the Rules.
Ships which do not comply with the highest standard of the rules of a Classification Society recognised by the Administration, shall be assigned such increased freeboards as shall be determined by the Assigning Authority, and for guidance the following strength moduli are formulated:—
Material.
bouge normal et une section transversale de la partie haute égale à la section réelle du navire.
Lorsqu’il y a un retrait ou une brisure dans la muraille des œuvresmortes (comme, par exemple, dans un navire turret) 70 pour cent de la section audessus du retrait ou de la brisure sont inclus dans la surface servant à déterminer la section équivalente.
Dans le cas d’un navire n’ayant pas au milieu de la longueur une superstructure fermée s’entendant41
Le coefficient de finesse employé avec les Tables de franc-bord est donné par la formule:

dans laquelle A est le déplacement en tonnes du navire hors membres (à l’exclusion des bossages) à un tirant d’eau moyen sur quille T 43
Le coefficient c ne doit pas être 44
L’Autorité habilitée pour l’assignation des francsbords doit s’assurer que la solidité des navires est suffisante pour les francsbords qui leur sont donnés.
Les navires construits conformément au “standard” le plus élevé des règles d’une Société de Classification reconnue par l’Administration devront être considérés comme ayant une solidité suffisante pour le franc-bord minimum prévu par les Règles.
Les navires qui ne répondent pas au “standard” le plus élevé des règles d’une Société de Classification reconnue par l’Administration doivent subir une augmentation de leurs francsbord 45

Frame.
Frame modulus.
The required frame modulus is expressed by
s is the frame spacing in inches.
t is the vertical distance in feet measured at amidships from the top of the keel to a point midway between the top of the inner bottom at side and the top of the heel bracket (see Figure 2); where there is no double bottom, t is measured to a point midway between the top of the floor at centre and the top of the floor at side.
f1 is a coefficient depending on H, which, in ships fitted with double bottoms, is the vertical distance in feet from the middle of the beam bracket of the lowest tier of beams at side to a point midway between the top of the inner bottom at side and the top of the heel bracket (see Figure 2). Where there is no double bottom, H is measured to a point midway between the top of the floor at centre and the top of the floor at side. Where the frame obtains additional strength from the form of the ship, due allowance is made in the value of f1.

Les madriers mobiles doivent avoir au moins 50 millimètres d’épaisseur lorsque la largeur de l’ouverture est inférieure ou égale à 0m76; leur épaisseur sera augmentée de 25 millimètres pour chaque augmentation de 380 millimètres sur la largeur; ou (c) des tôles démontables d’une efficacité équivalente.
Lorsque les cloisons exposées aux extrémités des dunettes, châteaux et gaillards ne sont pas d’une construction efficace (voir Règle XLII) elles sont considérées comme non existantes.
Lorsqu’une ouverture non munie d’un dispositif de fermeture permanent est pratiquée dans le bordé extérieur d’une super-structure, la partie de la superstructure placée par le travers de l’ouverture est considérée comme n’ayant aucune longueur effective.
Lorsque la hauteur d’une superstructure est plus petite que la hauteur réglementaire, sa longueur est réduite dans le rapport de la hauteur réelle à la hauteur réglementaire. Lorsque la hauteur de la superstructure dépasse la hauteur réglementaire, la longueur de la superstructure n’est pas augmentée.

Where the access openings in these bulkheads are not fitted with Class 1 closing appliances 90 per cent, is added.
The standard height of a trunk is the standard height of a bridge.
Where the height of the trunk is less than the standard height of a bridge, the addition is reduced in the ratio of the actual to the standard height; where the height of hatchway coamings on the trunk deck is less than the standard height of coamings (see Ante, p. 2270.

Sheer.
General measurements.
In ships designed to trim by the stern in service, the sheer may be measured in relation to the load line, provided an additional mark is placed at .25 L forward of amidships, to indicate the assigned load line. This mark is to be similar to the load line disc amidships.
In flush deck ships and in ships with detached superstructures the sheer is measured at the freeboard deck.
In ships with topsides of unusual form in which there is a step Ante, p. 2294.
In ships with a superstructure of standard height which extends over the whole length of the freeboard deck, the sheer is measured at the superstructure deck; where the height exceeds the standard, the sheer may be considered in relation to the standard height.
Where a superstructure is intact or access openings in its enclosing bulkheads are fitted with Class 1 closing appliances, and the super-structure deck has at least the same sheer as the exposed freeboard deck, the sheer of the enclosed portion of the freeboard deck is not taken into account.

La tonture est mesurée depuis le pont en abord jusqu’à une ligne de référence tracée parallèlement à la quille au milieu du navire et tangente à la ligne de tonture.
Dans les navires prévus pour naviguer avec un tirant d’eau arrière plus grand que le tirant d’eau avant, la tonture peut être mesurée d’après la ligne de charge à condition qu’une marque additionnelle soit placée à 0,25 L en avant du milieu pour indiquer la ligne de charge assignée. Cette marque doit être semblable au disque de franc-bord au milieu du navire.
Dans les navires à pont découvert et dans les navires à super-structures détachées la tonture est mesurée au pont de franc-bord.
Dans les navires dont les parties hautes des murailles sont d’une forme particulière avec un retrait ou une brisure, la tonture est évaluée d’après le creux équivalent au milieu du navire (voir Règle XXXV).
Dans les navires ayant une superstructure de hauteur réglementaire, s’étendant sur toute la longueur du pont de franc-bord, la tonture est mesurée au pont de la superstructure. Lorsque la hauteur est supérieure à la hauteur réglementaire la tonture peut être évaluée d’après la hauteur réglementaire.

Variations.
Where the forward half of the sheer profile exceeds the standard, and the after portion of the sheer profile is not less than 75 per cent. of the standard, credit is allowed for the part in excess; where the after part is less than 50 per cent. of the standard no credit is given for the excess sheer forward. Where the after sheer is between 50 per cent. and 75 per cent. of the standard, intermediate allowances may be granted for excess sheer forward.

Lorsque la moitié avant de la ligne de tenture est plus haute que la ligne de tenture réglementaire et lorsque la partie arrière de la tenture n’est pas moindre que 75 pour cent de la tenture réglementaire, on doit tenir compte de la partie en excédent. Lorsque la partie arrière a une tenture moindre que 50 pour cent de la valeur de la tenture réglementaire, on ne doit pas tenir compte de l’excès de tenture à l’avant. Lorsque la tenture à l’arrière est comprise entre 50 et 75 pour cent de la tenture réglementaire, une correction intermédiaire peut être donnée pour excès de tenture à l’avant.
Dans les navires à pont découvert et dans ceux dont la super-structure fermée couvre 0,1 L sur l’avant et 0,1 L sur l’arrière du milieu du navire, la correction pour excès de tenture (voir Règle LVII) est déduite du franc-bord; dans les navires à superstructures détachées où aucune superstructure fermée ne couvre le milieu du navire, aucune déduction n’est faite du franc-bord; lorsqu’une super-structure fermée couvre moins de 0,1 L sur l’avant et de 0,1 L sur l’arrière du milieu du navire, la déduction est obtenue par interpolation.
La déduction maximum pour excès de tenture est de 38 millimètres à 30 mètres 50 et augmente à raison de 38 millimètres pour chaque augmentation de 30 m. 50 de la longueur du navire.

Ante, p. 2294.
In sailing ships having a greater rate of rise of floor than 1½ inches per foot, the vertical distance from the top of keel (Rule XXXIV), is reduced by half the difference between the total rise of floor at the half-breadth of the ship and the total rise at 1½ inches per foot. 2½ inches per foot of half-breadth is the maximum rate of rise for which a deduction is made.
Where the form at the lower part of the midship section is of a hollow character, or thick garboards are fitted, the depth is measured from the point where the line of the flat of the bottom continued inwards cuts the side of the keel.
The depth used with the Freeboard Table is to be taken as not less than .

Deductions.
Dans les voiliers ayant un relevé de varangues supérieur à 125 millimètres par mètre la distance verticale mesurée depuis le dessus de quille (Règle XXXIV) est réduite de la demi-différence entre le relevé total des varangues en un point situé à la demi-largeur du navire et le relevé total correspondant à une inclinaison de 125 millimètres par mètre. La réduction maximum à apporter ne peut dépasser celle qui correspond à un relevé de varangue de 208 millimètres par mètre de la demi-largeur du navire.
Lorsque les formes de la partie inférieure du maître couple sont creuses ou qu’il existe des galbords épais, le creux est mesuré depuis le point où le prolongement vers l’axe de la ligne tangente à la partie plate du fond coupe le côté de la quille.
La profondeur employée avec la Table de franc-bord ne doit pas être inférieure à .

Deck openings covered by timber deck cargo.
Stowage.
On a ship within a seasonal winter zone in winter, the height of the deck cargo above the freeboard deck is not to exceed one-third of the extreme breadth of the ship.
All timber deck cargo is to be compactly stowed, lashed and secured. It must not interfere in any way with the navigation and necessary work of the ship, or with the provision of a safe margin of stability at all stages of the voyage, regard being given to additions of weight, such as those due to absorption of water and to losses of weight such as those due to consumption of fuel and stores.
Protection of crew, machinery space, etc.
Les puits dans 86
Toute pontée de bois doit être arrimée d’une manière massive, saisie et assujettie. Elle ne doit gêner en aucune façon ni la navigation ni la manœuvre du navire, ni compromettre la conservation pendant toute la durée du voyage d’une marge suffisante de stabilité, eu égard aux augmentations de poids telles que celles résultant du mouillage de la cargaison, ainsi qu’aux réductions de poids provenant par 88
water. Efficient protection for the crew in the form of guard rails or life lines, spaced not more than 12 inches apart vertically, is to be provided on each side of the deck cargo to a height of at least 4 feet above the cargo. The cargo is to be made sufficiently level for gangway purposes.
Steering arrangements.
Uprights.
Lashings.
Eye plates for these lashings are to be riveted to the sheer-strake at intervals of not more than 10 feet, the distance from an end bulk-head of a superstructure to the first eye plate being not more than 6 feet 6 inches. Additional eye plates may be fitted on the stringer plate.
Overall lashings are to be in good condition and are to be not less than ¾ inch close link chain or flexible wire rope of equivalent strength, fitted with sliphooks and stretching screws, which are to be accessible at all times. Wire rope lashings are to have a short length of long link chain to permit the length of lashings to be regulated.
When timber is in lengths less than 12 feet, the spacing of the lashings is to be reduced to suit the length of timber or other suitable provision made.
accès puissent être convenablement fermées et disposées 89
La pontée doit être bien saisie sur toute sa longueur par des saisines traversières 94
Des points d’attache pour ces saisines doivent être rivés à la tôle du carreau à des intervalles n’ excédant pas 3m05 mètres. La distance comprise entre une cloison fronteau de superstructure et le premier point d’attache voisin ne doit pas être supérieur à lm98. Des points d’attache additionnels peuvent être fixés sur la tôle gouttière.
Les saisines traversières doivent être en bon état et consister en chaîne à mailles serrées de 19 millimètres au moins ou en fil d’acier flexible de résistance équivalente, elles doivent être garnies de crocs à échappement et de ridoirs accessibles en tout temps.
Les saisines en fil d’acier doivent avoir un bout de chaîne 95
When the spacing of the lashings is 5 feet or less, the size of the lashing may be reduced, but not less than ½ inch chain or equivalent wire rope is to be used.
All fittings required for securing the lashings are to be of strength corresponding to the strength of the lashings.
On superstructure decks, uprights, where fitted, are to be about 10 feet apart and are to be secured by athwartship lashings of ample strength.

No. 48
Washington, D.C., February 8th, 1932
I have the honour to refer to my note No, 183 of May 29th, 19311
I am to state that His Majesty’s Government in the United Kingdom are entirely in agreement with the proposed modifications, which they consider represent the most practical way of simplifying the application of the rules in those countries in which metric measures are in use, but they do not consider that the proposal necessitates any amendment of the Convention.
I have the honour to be, with the highest consideration, Sir,
Secretary of State of the United States,

The results from the proposed tables are practically the same as those of the present, the differences being negligible. In the case of the freeboard tables, they never are more than 2,5 millimètres, or one-tenth of an inch; this maximum only is attained in a few cases.
As to the height of coamings, &c., it should be kept in mind that in any case both the English and the French text are in force, and, there-fore, it will not be possible that any surveyor will make difficulties either when a ship that has been constructed in a country where the English measures are applied does not comply, as to some measures, which should be slightly larger, according to the French text or alternatively.
Finally, it is proposed to draw up the freeboards on the certificates when in metric measures in mètres with two decimals, e.g.:—
| “Tropicale_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ | (a) 0,13 mètre au-dessus de (b). |
| “Été _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ | (b) 1,92 mètres. |
| Arête supérieure de la ligne passant par le centre du disque. | |
| “Hiver_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ | (c) 0,13 mètre au-dessous de (b). |
| “Hiver dans l’Atlantique nord_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ | (d) 0,18 mètre au-dessous de (b).” |
Such is simpler than and preferable to a freeboard mentioned on the certificate in millimètres.
Secretary of State.
Washington, June 1, 1932.
Consideration has been given to the proposal enclosed with your note No. 48 of February 8, 1932, made by the Netherlands Government relating to modifications in the French text of certain of the rules in Annex 1 to the International Load Line Convention of 1930, and I am now enabled to inform you that as the proposed modifications in no way alter the English text of the convention or affect the equivalence of the French text with the English text, this Government is in agreement with His Majesty’s Government in the United Kingdom that the modifications represent the most practical way of simplifying the application of the rules in those countries in which metric measures are in use, and that the proposal does not necessitate any amendment of the convention.
Attention is invited, however, to a typographical error found in the third table of Regulation XXXVII in the Netherland proposal where the factor f3 corresponding to a value of K of 4,5 meters should be changed from 3134 to read 4134.
Accept, Excellency, the renewed assurances of my highest consideration.
For the Secretary of State:
British Ambassador.

Secretary of State.
The Secretary of State presents his compliments to the British Chargé d’Affaires ad interim, and referring to the Ambassador’s note No. 215 of June 28, 1932, transmitting copies of a sheet showing corrections which the Netherland Government has made to the figures contained in its proposal transmitted with the Ambassador’s note No. 48 of February 8, 1932, relating to modifications in the French text of the rules in Annex I to the London Load Line Convention of 1930, informs him that these modifications have had the consideration of the appropriate Departments of the Government of the United States and that no objection to them is perceived.
The Secretary of State would be thankful if he might be informed from time to time in regard to the other countries which accept the corrections proposed by the Netherland Government.
The Secretary of State would be further obliged if he might be informed of the procedure His Majesty’s Government in Great Britain will take in respect of such corrections in the French text of the convention and rules, as have been or may be agreed upon in order to bring that text more in accord with the English text. It would be especially desirable to know whether it is the intention of the British Government to furnish to the governments certified copies of the convention and rules as so modified.
In this relation it is recalled that attached to the certified copy of the convention and rules originally furnished by the British Government is a long list of errata in the French text. The procedure of the governments in proclaiming or promulgating the convention and rules would be greatly facilitated and simplified if corrected certified copies could be furnished to them.
Washington, August 9, 1932.

British Ambassador.
No. 313
His Majesty’s Minister presents his compliments to the Secretary of State and with reference to his note 581.61 B 1/224 of August 9th last relative to the International Load Line Convention, has the honour, under instructions from His Majesty’s Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, to inform him that Belgium, Denmark, Estonia, France, Greece, Italy, Poland, the Free City of Danzig, Spain, and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, have expressed their willingness to accept the proposals of the Netherlands Government in connection with the French text of the Rules in Annex 1 to that Convention.
Mr. Osborne is also instructed to inform Mr. Stimson that, since the errors found in the original text of the Convention and Rules were all of minor importance, and as the modifications in the French text recently proposed by the Netherlands Government represent merely the most practical way of simplifying the application of the Rules in Annex 1 to the Convention in those countries in which metric measures are in use, the competant authorities do not propose to arrange for the circulation of certified corrected copies of the Convention and Rules. In this connection, he is to add that the errors which were found to exist in the English text of the Convention and to which attention was called at the time of the circulation of certified copies, were corrected in the copy of the Convention which was scheduled to the Merchant Shipping (Safety and Load Line Conventions) Act of 1932.

Saafremt en Pakke, hvis Indhold er i Strid med disse Forbudsbestemmelser, overleveres fra det ene Land til det andet, skal sidstnævnte gaa frem i Overensstemmelse med sine Love og indenrigske Bestemmelser. Eksplosive eller brandfarlige Genstande samt Dokumenter, Billeder og andre Genstande, der strider imod almindelig Velanstændighed, kan tilintetgøres paa Stedet af det Postvæsen, der forefinder dem i Posten.
Den Omstændighed, at en Pakke indeholder et Brev eller en Meddelelse, der har Karakter af et Brev, kan dog ikke i noget Tilfælde medføre, at Pakken tilbagesendes til Afsenderen. Brevet sættes i Porto efter almindelige Regler, der opkræves hos Adressaten.
De to Poststyrelser underretter hinanden om alle forbudte Genstande ved Hjælp af den af Verdenspostforeningens internationale Bureau offentliggjorte Fortegnelse over forbudte Genstande. De paatager sig dog ikke herved noget Ansvar over for Toldvæsen, Politimyndigheder eller Afsenderne.

Paa Pakker kan angives Værdi indtil et Beløb af 500 Guldfrancs eller det hertil i Afsendelseslandets Mønt svarende Beløb. Poststyrelseme i de to kontraherende Lande kan dog efter fælles Overenskomst forhøje eller nedsætte dette Maksimum for Værdiangivelse.
Forsendelsen af en Pakke giver ikke Ret til Erstatning udover den virkelige Værdi af dens Indhold, men det er tilladt at angive en lavere Værdi.
Med Undtagelse af de i næste Punkt nævnte Tilfælde er Poststyrelserne ansvarlige for Bortkomst af Pakker med angiven Værdi, der er indleveret i det ene af de kontraherende Lande og bestemt til Udlevering i det andet, og for Bortkomst, Berøvelse eller Beskadigelse af Pakkernes Indhold, helt eller delvist.
Afsenderen eller en anden dertil legitimeret Person er som Følge heraf berettiget til en Erstatning, der svarer til Bortkomstens, Indholdsberøvelsens eller Beskadigelsens virkelige Beløb. Erstatningsbeløbet beregnes paa Grundlag, af den virkelige Værdi (Fakturapris eller, hvis en saadan ikke opgives, almindelig Vurderingspris) paa det Tidspunkt og det Sted, hvor Pakken indleveredes, dog med det Forbehold, at Erstatningen ikke i noget Tilfælde kan overstige den paa Pakken angivne Værdi, for hvilken Værdigebyr er betalt, og højst kan udgøre 500 Guldfrancs.
I Tilfælde, hvor der skal betales Erstatning for en bortkommen Pakke eller for Ødelæggelse eller Berøvelse af hele dens Indhold, er Afsenderen, saafremt han fremsætter Begæring derom, berettiget til at faa Portoen tilbagebetalt. Værdigebyret tilbagebetales dog ikke i noget Tilfælde.
Med mindre der foreligger særlig Overenskomst om det modsatte mellem de interesserede Lande, betales der ikke Erstatning af noget af de kontraherende Lande for transiterende Pakker med angiven Værdi, der er bestemt til et af de to kontraherende Lande, og som hidrører fra et Land, der ikke er Deltager i denne Overenskomst.
Naar en Pakke med angiven Værdi, der er indleveret i det ene Land og bestemt til Udlevering i det andet Land, omadresseres fra sidstnævnte Land til et tredie Land eller tilbagesendes til et tredie Land paa Afsenderens eller Adressatens Begæring, kan den, der er berettiget til Erstatning, i Tilfælde af Bortkomst, Indholdsberøvelse eller Beskadigelse, som er sket efter Omekspeditionen eller Tilbagesendelsen fra det oprindelige Bestemmelsesland, i saadanne Tilfælde kun kræve den Erstatning, som det Land, i hvilket Bortkomsten, Indholdsberøvelsen eller Beskadigelsen er sket, indvilliger i at yde, eller som dette Land er forpligtet til at yde i Overensstemmelse med den mellem de i Omekspeditionen eller Tilbagesendelsen direkte interesserede Lande bestaaende Overenskomst. Hvert af denne Overneskomsts to Signatarlande, som ved en Fejl videresender en Pakke med angiven Værdi til et tredie Land, er ansvarlig overfor Afsenderen i samme Udstrækning som Afsendelseslandet, d. v. s. inden for de i nærværende Overenskomst fastsatte Grænser.

Udbetaling af Erstatning for en Pakke med angiven Værdi skal ske til den berettigede saa snart som muligt og senest inden 1 Aar regnet fra Dagen efter Erstatningsbegæringens Fremsættelse.
Dog kan den Poststyrelse, der skal udrede Erstatningen, undtagelsesvis udsætte Betalingen udover den fastsatte Frist, hvis den inden denne Frists Udløb ikke har været i Stand til at fastslaa den paagældende Pakkes Skæbne eller det Ansvar, den har paadraget sig.
Forpligtelsen til at udbetale Erstatning paahviler den Poststyrelse, under hvilken Afsendelsesposthuset hører, dog med den Ændring, at Forpligtelsen i de Tilfælde, hvor Erstatning skal udbetales til Adressaten i Overensstemmelse med Reglen i Punkt 1, Stykke 2, paahviler Bestemmelseslandets Poststyrelse.

De maa ikke af dette Postvæsen belastes med Toldafgifter eller andre Afgifter. Pakker med angiven Værdi, der er fejlsendt, maa videresendes til deres Bestemmelsessted som Værdipakker. Hvis dette er umuligt, skal de tilbagesendes til Afsendelseslandet.
Naar Videresendeisen medfører Tilbagesendelse til Afsendelseslandet, refunderer det videresendende Postvæsen Afsendelseslandets Postvæsen de modtagne Portoandele og giver Meddelelse om Fejlen ved Tilbagemeldelse.
Naar Videresendeisen medfører Forsendelse af en Pakke til et tredie Land, og det Portobeløb, der er godskrevet det videresendende Postvæsen, er utilstrækkeligt til at dække Udgifterne ved Videresendelsen, som det skal bestride, erholder det videresendende Postvæsen Dækning for det manglende Beløb ved at kræve det hos det Udvekslingskontor, fra hvilket den fejlsendte Pakke modtoges direkte. Grundlaget for Kravet meddeles det nævnte Kontor ved Tilbagemeldelse.
En Pakke kan paa Begæring af Afsenderen eller Adressaten omekspederes som Følge af Adressatens Adresseforandring inden for Bestemmelseslandet.
For Pakker, som omekspederes indenfor Bestemmelseslandets Territorium, kan Poststyrelsen i dette Land opkræve de Tillægstakster, som maatte være fastsat i dens indenrigske Bestemmelser. Disse Takster ophæves ikke, selv om Pakken tilbagesendes til Afsendelseslandet eller videresendes til et andet Land.
En Pakke kan kun efter Afsenderens eller Adressatens Begæring omekspederes udover det oprindelige Bestemmelseslands Territorium og kun under den Forudsætning, at Pakken opfylder de for dens videre Befordring gældende Betingelser.

TIL
POSTPAKKEOVERENSKOMSTEN.
De følgende detaillerede Bestemmelser angaaende Gennemførelsen af Postpakkeoverenskomsten er fastsat efter Aftale mellem Poststyrelserne i De Forenede Stater i Amerika og Danmark. De kan ændres paa ethvert Tidspunkt, naar det anses for nødvendigt.
Pakker, der udveksles i Henhold til Bestemmelserne i denne Overenskomst maa ikke veje over 44 pounds (20 kilogram).

De ovenfor angivne Bestemmelser om største Vægt og Udstrækning kan ændres paa ethvert Tidspunkt efter Aftale ved Skriftveksling.
Preparation of parcels.
The name and address of the sender and of the addressee must be legibly and correctly written in every case when possible on the parcel itself or on a label or tag firmly attached thereto. It is not allowed to write with initials the name and address of the sender or addressee, unless the initials are the adopted trade name of the senders or addressees which is generally understood. Addresses in pencil are also not allowed, except those written with copying ink on a surface previously dampened.
A slip bearing the name and address of the sender and addressee must be enclosed in the parcel when the address is written on a label or tag which is not gummed to the parcel. It is advisable that such slips be enclosed in all parcels.
Every parcel must be packed in a manner adequate for the length of the journey and the character of the contents, and in such a way as to prevent the contents from damaging other parcels or objects or injuring the postal agents. The packing must protect the contents sufficiently that, in case of rifling, the traces thereof may be easily discovered.
No packing is required for ordinary parcels consisting of a single article, such as pieces of wood, metal, etc., which are not usually packed by the trade.
Any liquid or any substance which easily liquefies must be packed in a double receptacle. Between the first receptacle (bottle, flask, pot, box, etc.) and the second (box of metal, of strong wood, of strong corrugated cardboard or of strong fiberboard or receptacle of equal strength) shall be left a space which shall be filled with sawdust, bran or some other absorbent material, in sufficient quantity to absorb all the liquid contents in the case of breakage.
Powders and dyes in powder form must be packed in lead-sealed metal containers which must be enclosed in substantial outer covers, so as to obviate all damage to the accompanying mail matter.
Insured parcels must be sealed by means of wax, by lead or other seals. Ordinary parcels may be sealed at the option of the sender, or careful tying is sufficient as a mode of closing. Either Administration may require a special design or mark of the sender in the sealing of insured parcels mailed in its service, as a means of protection.
The customs of the country of destination, for the purpose of customs examination, shall have the right to break the seals. After customs examination is concluded, the parcels shall be officially resealed.
Afsenderens og Adressatens Navn og Adresse skal skrives tydeligt i videst muligt Omfang paa selve Pakken eller paa en Seddel eller et Mærke, der er solidt fæstet til Pakken. Det er ikke tilladt at angive Afsenderens eller Adressatens Navn og Adresse ved Initialer, med mindre Initialerne er Afsenderens eller Adressatens indregistrerede Firmabetegnelse. Adresseangivelser, der er anført med Blyant, er heller ikke tilladt, medmindre der er anvendt Blækstift og Stedet for Anbringelsen forud er fugtet.
En Seddel, der bærer Angivelse af Afsenderens og Adressatens Adresser, skal indlægges i Pakken, naar dennes Adresse er skrevet paa en Seddel eller et Mærke, der ikke er klæbet paa Pakken. Det tilraades iøvrigt at indlægge saadanne Sedler i alle Pakker.
Enhver Pakke skal være indpakket paa en under Hensyn til Befordringens Længde og Indholdets Beskaffenhed forsvarlig Maade og saaledes, at Indholdet ikke kan foraarsage Skade paa andre Pakker eller Genstande eller medføre Ulemper for Posttjenestemændene. Indpakningen maa være tilstrækkelig til Beskyttelse af Indholdet, saaledes at der i Tilfælde af Indholdsberøvelse let kan konstateres Spor heraf.
Der kræves ikke Indpakning for almindelige Pakker, der kun bestaar af en enkelt Genstand, f. Eks. et Stykke Træ, Metal o. s. v., som det er Handelssædvane ikke at indpakke.
Alle Vædsker eller Stoffer, der let bliver flydende, skal indesluttes i dobbelte Beholdere. Imellem den indre Beholder (Flaske, Dunk, Kasse o. s. v.) og den ydre (Kasse af Metal, stærkt Træ, stærkt Bølgepap eller stærkt Fibermateriale eller en Beholder af tilsvarende Styrke) skal der være et Mellemrum, som skal udfyldes med Savsmuld, Klid eller andet absorberende Stof i en saadan Mængde, at det i Tilfælde af Lækage er tilstrækkeligt til at absorbere hele det flydende Indhold.
Pulver og Farve i Pulverform skal indesluttes i Metalbeholdere, der tilloddes og derefter indpakkes i stærkt ydre Materiale, saaledes at al Beskadigelse af andre Postforsendelser derved forebygges.
Pakker med angiven Værdi skal forsegles med Benyttelse af Lak, Bly eller andet Materiale. Det staar Afsenderen frit for at forsegle almindelige Pakker, men omhyggelig Omsnøring er tilstrækkeligt Lukke. Hver af Poststyrelseme kan af Beskyttelseshensyn kræve, at Afsenderen til Forsegling af Pakker med angiven Værdi skal benytte et Signet med særligt Tegn eller Mærke.
Toldmyndighederne i Bestemmelseslandet har ved Toldundersøgelsen Ret til at bryde Seglene. Efter Toldbehandlingens Afslutning skal Pakkerne forsegles paany med Tjenestesegl.
Customs declarations.
The sender shall prepare one customs declaration for each parcel sent from either country, upon a special form provided for the purpose by the country of origin.
The customs declaration shall give a general description of the parcel, an accurate statement in detail of its contents and value, date of mailing, actual weight, the sender’s name and address, and the name and address of the addressee, and shall be securely attached to the parcel. However, as an exception to the foregoing, when more than one parcel is mailed simultaneously by the same sender in one country to the same addressee at the same address in the other country, the sender need prepare only one customs declaration for the entire shipment, which customs declaration shall show, in addition to the particulars set forth in the preceding sentence, the total number of parcels comprising the shipment, and shall be securely attached to one of the parcels. The parcels comprising the entire shipment shall be clearly marked in such case with a fractional number, the numerator of which will indicate, in Arabic figures, the number of the parcel, and the denominator the number of parcels comprising the shipment; for example, if a single shipment were composed of 15 parcels, each parcel would be numbered, respectively, 1/15, 2/15, 3/15, etc.
Return receipts.
Receptacles.
Afsenderen skal for hver Pakke, der afsendes fra et af de to Lande, udfylde een Tolddeklaration paa en af Afsendelseslandet til dette Formasi fremstillet særlig Formular.
Tolddeklarationen skal indeholde en almindelig Betegnelse af Paklien, en nøjagtig, detailleret Angivelse af dens Indhold og Værdi, Indleveringsdato, virkelige Vægt, Afsenderens Navn og Adresse samt Adressatens Navn og Adresse, og skal befæstes solidt til Pakken. Dog gælder det som en Undtagelse fra det foregaaende, at Afsenderen, naar der samtidig indleveres mere end een Pakke fra samme Afsender i det ene Land til samme Adressat og Adresse i det andet Land, kun behøver at udfylde een Tolddeldaration for hele Sendingen, hvilken Tolddeklaration foruden de i foregaaende Punktum opregnede Angivelser skal angive det samlede Antal Pakker, som Sendingen omfatter, og skal befæstes solidt til en af Pakkerne. Pakkerne, der udgør Sendingen, skal i saadanne Tilfælde tydeligt mærkes med et Nummer i Brøkform, saaledes at Tælleren i arabiske Tal skal angive Pakkens Nummer og Nævneren Antallet af Pakker, Sendingen omfatter. Hvis en Sending f. Eks. bestaar af 15 Pakker, skal disse henholdsvis nummereres 1/15, 2/15, 3/15 o. s. v.

If no report is made by the next mail, it will be assumed that the mail has been received in proper order until the contrary is proved.

National Fire Prevention Week. Preamble.
Last year fires in the United States caused a direct property loss estimated at nearly $500,000,000, an increase of $40,000,000 over 1929. These direct losses affected home owners, farmers, business men, and workingmen. There were many more millions of indirect losses in rentals, broken contracts, unemployment, and interruption to business.
Deaths and injuries to men, women, and children exceeded 35,000 in 1930. The majority of the losses of life and property were the result of carelessness and lack of preventive measures.
The purpose of National Fire Prevention Week is to focus attention on the hazards of fire and to promote preventive measures to reduce this devasting waste.

Our country has cause for gratitude to the Almighty. We have been widely blessed with abundant harvests. We have been spared from pestilence and calamities. Our institutions have served the people. Knowledge has multiplied and our lives are enriched with its application. Education has advanced, the health of our people has increased. We have dwelt in peace with all men. The measure of passing adversity which has come upon us should deepen the spiritual life of the people, quicken their sympathies and spirit of sacrifice for others, and strengthen their courage. Many of our neighbors are in need from causes beyond their control and the compassion of the people throughout the nation should so assure their security over this winter that they too may have full cause to participate in this day of gratitude to the Almighty.

In recommending the customary public observance of Fire National Fire Prevention Week, 1932. Preamble.
The deplorable loss of thousands of human lives and the property waste of approximately half a billion dollars caused each year by fires should be scrupulously avoided. The American per capita loss now is nearly double that of 20 years ago and constitutes a challenge to our efforts that no citizen can afford to ignore. It is a drain on our created resources which we should strive to eliminate, as it is largely preventable.
The observance of National Fire Prevention Week should serve to arouse the attention and stimulate the action of all citizens in preventing fire waste.

And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech him to pardon our national and other transgressions—to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually—to render our national government a blessing to all the People, by constantly being a government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed—to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord—To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the encrease of science among them and Us—and generally to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best.

Mr. Coolidge had devoted his entire life to the public service, and his steady progress from Councilman to Mayor of Northampton and thence upward as Member of the State Senate of Massachusetts, Lieutenant-Governor and Governor of Massachusetts, to Vice-President and President of the United States, stands as a conspicuous memorial to his private and public virtues, his outstanding ability, and his devotion to the public welfare.
His name had become in his own lifetime a synonym for sagacity and wisdom; and his temperateness in speech and his orderly deliberation in action bespoke the profound sense of responsibility which guided his conduct of the public business.
From the American people he evoked an extraordinary warmth of affectionate response to his salient and characteristic personality. He earned and enjoyed their confidence in the highest degree. To millions of our people Ids death will come as a personal sorrow as well as a public loss.

I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of Your Excellency’s Note No. 1.7/3 (32), of May 24, 1930, the agreed English text of which is as follows:
Referring to correspondence exchanged between Your Excellency and this Ministry with regard to the conclusion of a provisional commercial agreement between the United States of America and Egypt, I have the honor to inform Your Excellency that the Egyptian Government is willing to apply unconditional most favored nation treatment to all products, of the soil and of industry, originating in the United States of America imported into Egypt and destined either for consumption or re-exportation or in transit. The said treatment will also be applied provisionally to products imported into Egypt through countries which have not completed commercial agreements with Egypt.
This régime is accorded by Egypt on condition of perfect reciprocity and with the exception of the régime accorded to Sudanese products, or the régime which might be applied by Egypt to products of certain border countries by virtue of regional conventions and with the exception of the treatment which the United States accords or may hereafter accord to the commerce of Cuba or of any of the territories or possessions of the United States or the Panama Canal Zone or the treatment, which is or may hereafter be accorded to the commerce of the United States with any of its territorial boundaries or possessions or to the commerce of its territories or possessions with one another.
The present arrangement does not apply to prohibitions or restrictions of a sanitary character or designed to protect human, animal, or plant life or regulations for the enforcement of police or revenue laws.
The present agreement will enter into force so soon as Your Excellency is good enough to confirm the consent of your Government thereto and shall continue in force until ninety days after notice of its termination shall have been given by either party unless sooner terminated by mutual agreement. If, however, either party should be prevented by the future action of its Legislature from carrying out the terms of the agreement the obligations thereof shall thereupon lapse.
I avail myself of the occasion to renew to you, Mr. Minister, the assurance of my high consideration.
In reply I have the honor to inform Your Excellency of my Government’s acquiescence in the terms of the above mentioned Note thus establishing a Provisional Commercial Accord, and avail myself of the occasion to renew to you, Mr. Minister, the assurance of my high consideration.

Es para mi una satisfacción poder expresar a Vuestra Excelencia el agrado con que he visto que las últimas declaraciones del Ministro de Hacienda español, expuestas en mi Nota de 11 de Febrero de 1930, concuerdan con las proposiciones que el Señor Secretario del Tesoro Norteamericano se servía hacer en la carta de 2 de Agosto de 1929 que por mi conducto dirigió a la Compañia Trasatlantica.
En vista de lo expuesto, ruego a Vuestra Excelencia se sirva dar las instrucciones oportunas a las autoridades correspondientes para que tengan en cuenta este acuerdo respecto a las Compañias Navieras españolas en el sentido de que los beneficios de los ciudadanos españoles que consisten exclusivamente en ganancios derivadas de operaciones de buques abanderados en España, serán exentos de tributos en los Estados Unidos por las leyes de este pais, y especialmente en relación con lo expuesto por Vuestra Excelencia en su Nota de 26 de Septiembre de 1929, respecto al caso de la Compañia Trasatlantica.
Tan pronto recibi la mencionada atenta Nota de Vuestra Excelencia de 5 del corriente mes de Abril, me apresuré a remitir la correspondiente copia al Ministerio de Estado de Madrid, y mientras recibo respuesta, cumplo el grato deber de expresar a Vuestra Excelencia mi agradecimiento por la buena voluntad que desde un principo he podido apreciar, tanto en el Departamento del Tesoro como en ese Departamento del muy digno cargo de Vuestra Excelencia para llegar a una solución favorable en este asunto, que no puede menos de estrechar las buenas relaciones existences entre nuestros dos paises.

No. 84–15
I have the honor to refer to Your Excellency’s kind note of the 5th instant relative to the exemption from taxation in the United States on revenue derived from operations of Spanish vessels, giving me a transcript of the communication which had been received in the matter from the Treasury Department, points of which were quoted thereunder.
It is a satisfaction for me to be able to express to Your Excellency the pleasure with which I have seen that the recent statements of the Spanish Minister of Finance, expressed in my note of February 11, 1930, accord with the proposals which the American Secretary of the Treasury was good enough to make in the letter of August 2, 1929 which he addressed to the Compañía Trasatlántica, through my intermediary.
In view of the foregoing, I request Your Excellency to be so good as to give the appropriate instructions to the corresponding authorities in order that they may take into account this decision with respect to the Spanish Shipping Companies in the sense that the profits of Spanish citizens which consist exclusively in earnings derived from vessels documented in Spain shall be exempt from taxation in the United States by the laws of this country, and particularly with respect to that set forth by Your Excellency in your note of September 26, 1929, regarding the case of the Compañía Trasatlántica.
As soon as I received the above-mentioned note of the 5th of the current month of April from Your Excellency, I hastened to transmit the correspondence in copy to the Ministry of State at Madrid, and while I await a reply, it is my pleasing duty to express to Your Excellency my gratitude for the good will which from the beginning I have been able to value, both in the Treasury Department and in the Department under Your Excellency’s worthy direction, to arrive at a favorable solution of this matter, which cannot do less than strengthen the good relations existing between our two countries.

I have the honor to refer to previous correspondence concerning Agreement by United States.
“Under date of March 31, 1930, this office expressed the opinion Vol. 42., p. 239; Vol. 43, p. 269; Vol. 44, p. 25; Vol. 45, p. 847.
“In order to put the arrangement into effect this Department, under date of April 25, 1930, issued Treasury Decision 4289 which amended article 89 of Regulations 62, 65, and 69, and article 1042 of Regulations 74, pertaining to the reciprocal exemption from income tax of earnings derived by nonresident aliens and foreign corporations from the operation of snips documented under the laws of foreign countries. The effect of that Treasury decision is to include Spain in the list of countries which exempt from tax so much of the income of citizens of the United States nonresident in such foreign countries and of corporations organized in the United States as consists of earnings derived from the operation of a ship or ships documented under the laws of the United States, and to exclude Spain from the list of countries which do not grant such exemption.
“In addition to the formal Treasury decision issued by this Department the Collector of Internal Revenue, Customhouse, New York, New York, was specifically advised under date of April 23, 1930, as to the ruling contained in the letter from this Department addressed to your Department under date of March 31, 1930, and was informed that the Compañia Transatlantica (Spanish Royal Mail Line) would not be held liable for income tax on income which consists exclusively of earnings derived from the operation of ships documented under the laws of Spain for the taxable years arising under the Revenue Acts of 1921, 1924, 1926, and 1928.”

Referring to the Embassy’s note No. 138 of February 11, 1924, Double income tax on shipping profits. Reciprocal exemption, United States. Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
It appears therefrom that Section 213(b)(8) of the Revenue Act Vol. 42, p. 239; Vol. 43, p. 269; Vol. 44, p. 25; Vol. 45, pp. 847, 849.
The navigation laws of the United States require that a corporation owning a vessel of the United States be a corporation organized in the United States and that its president and managing directors be citizens of the United States, but there is no requirement that the president and managing directors be residents of this country. It was conceivable therefore that the president and managing directors might reside in the United Kingdom, hold their meetings there, and there exercise control of the corporation. In such a case the corporation would, under British law, have been deemed a resident of the United Kingdom and as such subject to tax upon all its income.
It is understood that the proposal which the British Government now makes in its suggested draft of a Declaration in Council does not require that the American corporation shall operate its business outside the United Kingdom in order to be entitled to exemption from British income tax. The British Government proposes, according to the understanding of the Secretary of the Treasury, to exempt from British income tax (including super-tax) “any profits accruing from the business of shipping carried on with ships documented under the laws of the United States to a citizen of the United States resident outside the United Kingdom or to a corporation organized in the United States”. Upon the explicit understanding that the American corporation is thus exempted regardless of whether it does business in the United Kingdom or has an office or place of business therein or whether directors’ meetings are held in the United Kingdom and the control of the corporation is there exercised, the Secretary of the Treasury is of the opinion that the offer communicated in the Embassy’s note of February 11, 1924, satisfies the requirements of Section 213(b)(8) of the Revenue Act of 1924, so far as the United Kingdom is concerned.
The Secretary of the Treasury asks that I make clear the fact that the Treasury Department intends to construe Section 213(b)(8) of the Revenue Act of 1924 as not affording exemption to British subjects or others resident in the British dominions, colonies, dependencies, or possessions, or to corporations organized under and existing by virtue of the laws of the British dominions, colonies, dependencies, or possessions, unless the laws of such dominions, colonies, dependencies, or possessions grant an equivalent exemption to citizens of the United States and to corporations organized in the United States. The exemption from tax of income derived from the operation of ships of British registry will be confined to individuals resident in the United Kingdom, other than citizens of the United States, and to corporations organized under and existing by virtue of the laws of the United Kingdom.
Accept, Excellency, the renewed assurances of my highest consideration.
Ambassador of Great Britain.
No. 1106
Agreement by Great Britain.

AT THE COURT AT BUCKINGHAM PALACE.
The 7th day of November, 1924.
in council
Effective date in Great Britain.
The appropriate authorities of this Government have been giving consideration to the matter and feel that some uncertainty exists with regard to the provision in the third paragraph of the Order in Council to the effect that the exemption shall be deemed to take effect on May 1, 1923, whereas your note transmitting the Order in Council dated November 7, 1924, states that it will take effect “from that date”.
I shall be grateful if you will be so good as to furnish me a statement regarding the exact date from which exemption is granted to American citizens or corporations under British laws in order that the exemption of British subjects or corporations under the laws of the United States may be made effective from the same date.
Accept, Excellency, the renewed assurances of my highest consideration.
Ambassador of Great Britain.
No. 159.
I have the honour to refer to your note of January 15th, concerning the arrangement with my Government for the reciprocal exemption of shipping profits from income tax and to inform you in reply to the enquiry contained in the last paragraph, that the date from which exemption from British Income Tax (including super-tax) is granted in respect of shipping profits of American citizens or corporations under British laws is May 1st, 1923. I venture to request that instructions may be issued without delay by the appropriate authorities of your Government whereby the British interests concerned may benefit by this arrangement from the date above mentioned.
I have the honour to be with the highest consideration, Sir,
Your most obedient, humble servant,
Secretary of State of the United States,
Washington, D. C.
I have the honor to refer to your note No. 159 dated February 13, Agreement of United States.
Effective date.
Reference is also made to the last paragraph of Mr. Grew’s note dated August 11, 1924, setting forth the construction to be placed upon Section 213 (b) (8). In the last paragraph of your note No. 1106 dated November 18, 1924, you stated that “the Irish Free State in common with the other British Dominions” was not to be considered as affected by the Order in Council. Accordingly the exemption from Federal taxation in the United States will be applied on the basis of this understanding.
Accept, Excellency, the renewed assurances of my highest consideration.
Ambassador of Great Britain.

ROYAL ITALIAN EMBASSY
The Italian Ambassador presents his compliments to His Excellency Double income tax on shipping profits.
From a communication received from the Italian Steamship Companies Reciprocal exemption, United States and Italy. Vol. 42, p. 239.
In order to establish the required adequate basis of reciprocity, the Italian Government issued on March 4th, 1926 a Royal Decree N.340, the text of which is literally translated as follows:
“Companies organized in the United States and citizens of the
“United States not domiciled in Italy exercising maritime traffic
“in Italian ports, by means of ships flying the United States
“flag are exempt, with effect starting from January 1st, 1921,
“from the Imposta di Ricchezza Mobile, Income Tax, on income de-
“rived esclusively from such traffic, provided the United States
“likewise exempt from Income Tax, Imposta di Ricchezza Mobile,
“the income originating in the United States to Italian citizens not
“domiciled in the United States and to Italian Companies, and de-
“rived exclusively from the exercise of one or more ships flying the
“Italian flag.”
The provisions set forth in this Decree being exactly equivalent to those contained in Section 213, the Italian Government is confident that the competent American Authorities will extend to the Italian Steamship Companies operating in United States ports the treatment contemplated by Section 213 of the Revenue Act of 1921, and this with effect starting from January 1st, 1921.
The Italian Ambassador would much appreciate receiving some assurance in the matter.
Agreement by United States.
In reply, the Secretary of State has the honor to inform the Italian Ambassador that he is in receipt of a communication from the Treasury Department concerning this matter, a copy of which is enclosed, from which it will be observed that the Treasury Department holds that in view of the Royal Italian Decree No. 340 of March 4, 1926, Italy satisfies the equivalent exemption provision of Section 213 (b) (8) of the Revenue Acts of 1921, 1924 and 1926, and that consequently so much of the income from sources within the United States received by a non-resident alien or a foreign corporation as consists exclusively of earnings derived from the operation of a ship or ships documented under the laws of Italy is exempt from the Federal income tax.

The Department informs you of the receipt of a communication Double income tax on shipping profits. Reciprocal exemption, United States and the Netherlands.

“Whereas under Section 213, litt. b, No. 8 of the Revenue Act of the United States no tax is imposed on the income of an alien individual non-resident in the United States or of a foreign corporation which consists exclusively of earnings derived from the operation of a ship or ships documented under the laws of a foreign country which grants an equivalent exemption to citizens of the United States and to corporations organized in the United States, do hereby proclaim and make known:

The Treasury Department states that it interprets the proposed decree as exempting from tax the income from sources within the Netherlands received by citizens of the United States non-resident in the Netherlands and by corporations organized in the United States, which consists exclusively of earnings derived from the operation of ships documented under the laws of the United States, such exemption applying to income received on or after January 1, 1921. It notes that the exemption is granted to corporations organized in the United States without limiting such exemption in any way.
The Treasury Department states that the decree as submitted to it meets the equivalent exemption requirements of Section 213(b)(8) of the United States Revenue Acts of 1921, 1924 and 1926.

The Minister of Greece, in presenting his most cordial compliments to His Excellency the Secretary of State, has the honor to inform him that he has been authorized by his Government to set on foot negotiations for the conclusion of an agreement relative to the exemption of nationals of both countries [from the income tax] on
Greek law contains the following exemptions on this subject:
“The ordinance in paragraph 7 of Article 3 of this law has retroactive effect with respect to the income tax of the years 1919–1920 up to 1924–1925, as well as that of excess profits of the year 1915 and the following years, and also with respect to the additional tax on corporations of the year 1921 and the following years.”
“To paragraph 3 of Article 18 of Law 1640 concerning the taxation of income there is added as the sixth case the following exemption. Sixth case: Tn virtue of reciprocity, profits made in Greece by vessels flying a foreign flag.’ ”
The two ordinances mentioned above guarantee the exemption of foreign shipping concerns in virtue of reciprocity.
The income tax has been in force since 1919–1920, that is to say, since the date for which retroactive effect was stipulated in the law. The tax on excess profits was in force from 1915 until 1923, and the additional tax on corporations from 1921 until 1924.
Secretary of State, etc., etc.

[Extract]
The Secretary of State presents his compliments to the Greek Minister and has the honor to refer to the Minister’s note of February 29, 1928, setting forth the provisions of the Greek income tax law exempting from taxation earnings made in Greece by ships flying a foreign flag.
The Secretary of State has the honor to inform the Greek Minister that before it can be determined whether these exemptions are equivalent to the exemptions that may be accorded by the United States under Section 213(b)(8) of the Revenue Acts of 1921 and 1924 it will be necessary for the appropriate authorities of the Government to be informed as to whether:
In this connection the Secretary of State has the honor to state that he has been informed by the appropriate authorities of the Government that if it is eventually determined that the pertinent exemptions in the Greek income tax law are equivalent to the exemption provision of Section 213(b)(8) of the Revenue Acts of 1921 and 1924 it will be unnecessary for the United States to conclude any agreement with Greece relative to the exemption of earnings derived from the operation of ships documented under the laws of the two countries.
. . . if the Greek Minister will supply the additional information needed the appropriate authorities of the Government will be able to arrive at a definite decision with reference to the general question of the exemption of earnings made in the United States by ships flying the Greek flag.
No. 422
The Minister of Greece presents his compliments to His Excellency the Secretary of State and, referring to the Department’s Note of April 26, 1928, No. 811.512368 Shipping/4, has the honor to inform that the exemptions of the Greek law are equivalent to the exemptions that may be accorded by the United States under Section 213(B)(8) of the Revenue Acts of 1921 and 1924.
Concerning the Department’s inquiry as to whether “A” during the years 1921–1924 inclusive, taxes have been collected by the Greek Government from the revenues of American citizens residing in Greece or of corporations organized under the laws of the United States, derived from the operation of ships documented under the laws of the United States, the Minister of Greece is authorized to state that for the years 1921–1924 inclusive, no taxes have been collected by the Greek Government from the revenues of American citizens whether residing in Greece or not, or of shipping corporations organized under the laws of the United States for revenues deriving from operation of American ships in Greece.
With regard to question “B” whether the exemption provided in Article 3, Paragraph 7 of the Law No. 3338 applies to the profits derived by citizens of the United States not residing in Greece, and to corporations organized under the laws of the United States or whether in the case of such citizens the exemption only applies if he resides in the United States, the Minister of Greece is authorized to state that the exemption provided in Article 3, Paragraph 7 of the Greek Law No. 3338 is applied on the profits derived by a citizen of the United States whether residing in Greece or not as well as to the shipping companies organized under the American laws.
As to question “C” whether the exemption applies in cases where citizens of the United States or corporations organized under the laws of the United States maintain agencies, branch offices, or representatives in Greece, in connection with the operation of ships documented under the laws of the United States, the Minister of Greece is authorized to state that the exemption is applied generally not only for the American citizens and the American shipping enterprise but on the American ships in Greece.
Accordingly it is determined that the pertinent exemptions in the Greek Income Tax Law are equivalent to the exemption provisions of Section 213 (b) (8) of the Revenue Acts of 1921 and 1924.
The Minister of Greece should be exceedingly obliged if His Excellency the Secretary of State were kind enough to arrive at a definite decision with reference to the general question of exemption of earnings made in the United States by ships flying the Greek flag on the basis of reciprocity and in case that an agreement on this matter would be necessary the Minister of Greece is duly authorized to sign it.
Secretary of State, etc., etc.
Washington, D. C.
The Secretary of State presents his compliments to the Minister Agreement by United States.
“Inasmuch as Greece has not taxed the income of a citizen of the United States not residing in Greece and of a corporation organized in the United States derived from the operation of ships flying the American flag from 1921 and does not tax such income under the present law, Greece satisfies the equivalent exemption provisions of section 213 (b) (8) of the Revenue Acts of 1921, 1924, and 1926 and sections 212 (b) and 231 (b) of the Revenue Act of 1928. It is held, therefore, that the income of a nonresident alien individual and a foreign corporation from sources within the United States which consists exclusively of earnings derived from the operation of a ship or ships documented under the laws of Greece is not required to be included in gross income and is exempt from income, excess-profits and war-profits taxes for 1921 and subsequent years. If any tax on such income has been paid it will be refunded upon proper claims therefor being made by taxpayers who are entitled to the exemption, provided the period of limitation for making refunds has not expired.”

I have the honor to state that in order to establish between the United States and Denmark and the United States and Iceland the reciprocal income tax exemption provided for in Section 213 (b) (8) of the Revenue Act of 1921, it will be necessary for the Danish Government to declare that the income from sources in Denmark and Iceland of a citizen of the United States or of an American corporation which consists exclusively of earnings derived from the operation of ships documented under the laws of the United States is not subject to income taxation in Denmark or in Iceland. Upon the receipt of a note to this effect from the Danish Government this Government will declare, in a note to the Danish Government, that Denmark and Iceland satisfy the equivalent exemption provision of Section 213 (b) (8) of the Revenue Act of 1921.

No. 236.
By my letter of August 12th (No. 230) regarding an exchange of notes between the Government of Denmark and the Government of the United States for the reciprocal exemption of shipowners from income tax, I stated it to be the understanding of the Danish Government that this exemption when established would be as from January 1st 1921, notwithstanding the fact that the actual exchange of notes can not be arranged for until some time hence because the conditions stated in your note to me of August 9th must first be brought to the knowledge of the Danish Government.
I would be greatly obliged to you if you would be so good as to confirm to me the correctness of the above named understanding.
I have the honor to be, Sir, with the highest consideration,

In these circumstances I venture to hope that you will state in a note to me, for the information of the Danish Government, that Denmark and Iceland satisfy the equivalent exemption provision of Section 213 b 8 of the Revenue Act of 1921 and that Danish and Icelandic shipowners will be exempted from income tax in the United States as provided in the said Section as from January 1st 1921, in accordance with the letter (No. 236) which I had the honor to address to you on August 18th 1922.

I have the honor to refer to your note of August 18, 1922, in which, with reference to the proposed exchange of notes between the United States and Denmark for the reciprocal exemption of ship owners from income taxation, you request the Department to confirm the understanding of the Danish Government that this exemption, when established, would be as from January 1, 1921, notwithstanding the fact that the actual exchange of notes can not be arranged until some later date.

In answer thereto I beg to state that the income from sources in Denmark and Iceland of a citizen of the United States or of an American corporation, which consists exclusively of earnings derived from the operation of ships documented under the laws of the United States, is not and has not since January 1st 1921 or previously been subject to income taxation in Denmark, or in Iceland, and that my letter to you of October 24 th should be so understood.

“in case any Federal income taxes have been collected from nonresident aliens or foreign corporations on income which consists exclusively of earnings derived on or since January 1, 1921, from the operation of ships documented under the laws of Denmark or Iceland, such taxes will be the proper subject of a claim for refund”.

By the note which I had the honor to address to the Acting Secretary Double income tax on shipping profits. Reciprocal exemption, United States and Norway.
By new taxation laws enacted in Norway on August 11, 1924, an amendment has been made to the exemption provisions of the laws of August 18, 1911. I hereby enclose a copy of the new laws and a translation into English of the amended provisions according to which persons, companies and corporations belonging in a foreign country are exempt from taxes on property in and income from ship[s] engaged in traffic on a Norwegian port or between Norwegian ports and from taxes from income arising from the sale of tickets for the transportation of persons out of the kingdom; provided that Norwegian persons, companies and corporations are exempt in the country in question from taxes on corresponding activities.
By the new law provisions, the reciprocal exemption of income and excess and war profits taxes in Norway and the United States with regard to income derived from the operation of ships under their respective flags is reaffirmed.

Translation of following provisions of the Norwegian Laws of August 11, 1924, amending Article 15 in fine of the Law of Taxation for the Country Communities, and Article 10 in fine of the Law of Taxation for the Cities of August 18, 1911, which two Law Provisions are identical:

I have the honor to refer to your note of November 26, 1924, concerning the new taxation laws enacted in Norway on August 11, 1924, which, in you opinion, reaffirm the reciprocal exemption of income and excess and war profits taxes in Norway and the United States with regard to income derived from the operation of ships under their respective flags.
It appears from the enclosures transmitted with your note that the Norwegian laws of August 11, 1924, in translation, provide in part as follows:
“Persons, companies and corporations belonging in a foreign country are exempt from taxes on property in and income from ship[s] engaged in traffic on a Norwegian port or between Norwegian ports and from taxes on income arising from the sale of tickets or the transportation of persons out of the kingdom; provided that Norwegian persons, companies and corporations are exempt in the country in question from taxes on corresponding activities.
I have the honor to inform you that it has been held by the appropriate authorities of this Government that the provision of the Norwegian laws of August 11, 1924, above quoted, satisfies the equivalent exemption provision of Section 213 (b) (8) of the Revenue Act of 1924, and that, therefore, the income of a non-resident alien or foreign corporation, which consists exclusively of earnings derived from the operation of a ship or ships documented under the laws of Norway, is exempt from Federal income taxes imposed by the Revenue Act of 1924.
Accept, Sir, the renewed assurances of my highest consideration.
Minister of Norway.
In the note which Your Excellency’s predecessor was good enough Agreement by Norway.
In reply to Mr. Hughes’ note I have been authorized by my Government to confirm to Your Excellency the existence of reciprocity under the above mentioned Norwegian and American laws and that, therefore, persons, companies and corporations belonging in the United States of America are exempt in Norway from taxes on property in and income from a ship or ships, documented under the laws of the United States, engaged in traffic on a Norwegian port or between Norwegian ports, and from taxes on income arising from the sale of tickets for the transportation of persons out of the Kingdom of Norway.
Accept, Sir, the renewed assurances of my highest consideration.

No. 1419.
Double Income tax on shipping profits. Reciprocal exemption, United States and Brazil.
The representative of the United States Shipping Board has called my attention to Article 6 of Executive Decree No. 5,623, of December 29, 1928, by which His Excellency the President of the Republic sanctioned a law of Congress which “Reduces the duties on rolling and traction material for railroad and city transportation; alters the tax on paper for wrapping fruits; exempts from duties the importation of gold in bars and coined; regulates the payment by ‘exercício findo’ and adopts other measures.”
Article 6 of said Law states:
“Foreign navigation companies are hereby exempted from income tax, provided that the country in which their head office is located, grants exemption to Brazilian companies of the same character.”
According to .the dispositions of Section 213 (b) (8) of the Revenue Laws of the United States of 1924 and 1926 which were also included in the Revenue Law of the United States of 1928 in Section 212 (b) and 231(b):
It would appear that the above mentioned Revenue Laws of the United States contain a provision which would meet the terms of Article 6, of Executive Decree No. 5,623 of December 29, 1928, and that therefore I am justified in requesting Your Excellency’s Government to exempt the United States Shipping Board from payment of the Brazilian income tax.
Accept, Excellency [etc.]

Em additamento á minha nota n. NC/99, de 28 de Setembro ultimo e de accordo com as informações recebidas do Ministerio dos Negocios da Fazenda, tenho a honra de prestar a Vossa Excellencia os seguintes esclarecímentos:
A isenção de que trata o artigo 6° da lei n° 5.623, de 29 de Dezembro de 1928, aproveita a todas as companhias ou sociedades, estabelecidas na America do Norte, que exploram a industria de navegação e tenham agencias ou filiaes no Brasil ou exerçam aqui actividade, sob condição de reciprocidade para as companhias brasileiras de Navegação.

Finalmente, posso declarar a Vossa Excellencia que, a contar de 29 de Dezembro de 1928, não foram cobrados impostos sobre os rendimentos percebidos pelas emprezas de navegação exploradas por cidadãos da America do Norte ou companhias estabelecidas nesse paiz.

In continuation of the subject of my note No. NC/99, of September 28 last, and in accordance with information received from the Ministry of Finance, I have the honor to hand Your Excellency the following explanations:
The exemption mentioned in Article 6 of Law No. 5,623, of December 29, 1928, shall be applied to all companies or associations established in North America, which conduct the industry of navigation and have agencies or branch offices in Brazil or exercise activities here, under conditions of reciprocity for Brazilian navigation companies.
Under the express terms of the law, this privilege is restricted to these companies and therefore does not include the income of North American citizens, derived from the operation of one or more ships, registered under the laws of their country.

The Embassy of the United States of America presents its compliments to the Ministry for Foreign Affairs and has the honor to refer to the latter’s Note Verbale No. V. Steu 1496 of September 5, 1923, in which the Embassy was informed among other things that the Commonwealth Minister of Finance had issued certain instructions not [to] subject to the corporation tax the income derived exclusively from the operation of ships by commercial companies whose seat and place of direction are in the United States of America under certain circumstances mentioned, on condition of reciprocity on the part of the United States.
In accordance with the expressed desire of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs the contents of the note verbale under reply were communicated by cable to the Department of State, which has now sent a telegraphic reply.
In this telegram the Embassy is informed that the Treasury Department states that it is necessary for a foreign government to exempt citizens of the United States not residing in the foreign country concerned as well as domestic corporations from the tax on earnings from sources within such country derived exclusively from the operation of ships in order that such country may satisfy the equivalent exemption provision of the section of the Revenue Act of 1921 communicated to the Ministry for Foreign Affairs in the Embassy’s Note No. 91 of June 28, 1922.
The Embassy is informed further by the Treasury Department through the Department of State that, therefore, if the Minister of Commerce [Finance] will issue the same instructions to the financial authorities relative to citizens of the United States not residing in Germany as have been issued relative to domestic corporations Germany will have satisfied the equivalent exemption provision referred to. The Embassy is informed, that as soon as the Treasury Department receives notice through this Embassy that the additional instructions have been issued, it will issue a statement that Germany has satisfied this exemption provision.
If therefore the instructions referred to above are issued and the Ministry for Foreign Affairs will so inform the Embassy, the Embassy will take pleasure in telegraphing to the Department of State the date on which they become effective.
The Department of State would appreciate also being informed whether Germany has ever demanded or collected or under the law may demand any income tax from citizens of the United States not residing in Germany or domestic corporations on earnings derived from the operation of ships from January 1st, 1921, to the date on which the above instructions if issued become effective.

The Embassy of the United States of America presents its compliments to the Ministry for Foreign Affairs, and has the honor to refer to the latter’s Note Verbale No. V Steu 30/B 2556 of January 19, 1924, concerning the question of the taxing by Germany of earnings derived from the operation of ships documented under the laws of the United States. As will be remembered, the Embassy, by its Note Verbale No. 299 of March 2, 1923, informed the Ministry for Foreign Affairs that a copy of the Note Verbale above referred to had been duly transmitted to the Department of State.
The Embassy of the United States of America now has the honor to inform, the Ministry for Foreign Affairs that an instruction has been received from the Department of State, transmitting a ruling received from the Treasury Department on this subject, with reference to the Foreign Office’s note of January 19, 1924, requesting additional information on the following points:
“In the Ordinance of August 10, 1923, it is noted ‘that in the case of companies operated for profit, whose domicile and place of management is in the United States of America, the income which is derived exclusively from the operation of ships, shall not be subjected to the corporation tax. A corporation tax return for the aforesaid income is not to be required of North American companies which maintain in this country a branch or other place of operation or a continuous [permanent] representative.’
“Under this provision of the Ordinance of August 10, 1923, it appears that, an American corporation whose place of management, for instance, is in London, might possibly be taxed while an American corporation whose place of management is in the United States or Germany, would be exempted. In order for individual Germans and German shipping companies to be entitled, under the provisions of American law, to the benefits of reciprocity in the matter of exemption from taxation, it would be necessary for the Ordinance of August 10, 1923, to apply to all corporations organized in the United States regardless of the place of management.
“Moreover, in order to enable the Government of the United States to pass upon the question as to whether equivalent exemption is applicable from January 1, 1921, the Treasury Department states that it will be necessary for the German Government to show that citizens of the United States non-resident as to Germany and domestic corporations have not been subjected to income and corporation tax Since January 1, 1921, and the earnings derived from the operation of ships, and that they are exempt from such taxes and will not be required to pay the income and corporation tax on any income earned Since January 1, 1921.”
The Embassy of the United States of America begs further, in compliance with the request of the Department of State, that an early consideration of its response be given by the Foreign Office.

As concerns the conditions for abstention from collection of taxes from January 1, 1921, referred to in the last-mentioned note verbale, the Foreign Office can only repeat the statement based on the official findings of the Federal Minister of Finance and contained in its Note No. V Steu 30 of January 19, 1924—the statement that since January 1, 1921, the income from the operation of ships of American shipping companies and citizens who have no residence in Germany has not been subjected to the German income tax or corporation tax. Furthermore, the German Government will abstain from a supplementary collection of taxes for the period since January 1, 1921, if the American Government grants reciprocity.

No. 935
With reference to the Note Verbale No. V Steu 1489⁄B34881 dated September 3, 1924, of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs in regard to the taxation by Germany of the earnings derived from the operation of ships documented under the laws of the United States, the Embassy of the United States of America presents its compliments to the Ministry and has the honor to state that it lost no time in transmitting the Note Verbale under reference to the Department of State and is now in receipt of instructions to invite the Ministry’s attention to the following observations of the Treasury Department of the United States Government:
After careful consideration, this Department is of the opinion that in view of the categorical statement of the German Government and the proposed amendment by the Commonwealth Minister of Finance to his order of August 10, 1923, Germany will meet the equivalent exemption provision of Section 213 (b) (8) of the Revenue Act of 1924, upon the issuance of the necessary Orders referred to in the Note under consideration. The same opinion is herein expressed with respect to the years 1921, 1922 and 1923, under the provision of Section 213(b) (8) of the Revenue Act of 1921.
Accordingly, it is requested that the German Government be apprised that upon completion of the action proposed in the Note of the Foreign Office of September 3, 1924, the equivalent exemption provision of Section 213(b) (8) of both the Revenue Acts of 1921 and 1924 will be satisfied and that the income of a non-resident alien or foreign corporation from sources within the United States which consists exclusively of earnings of a ship or ships documented under the laws of Germany will be exempt from Federal Income tax and that such exemption will be applicable for the year 1921 and subsequent years. In this connection it should be pointed out that certain German shipping concerns have been granted until December 15th to complete their 1923 tax returns and it is desirable that this information be communicated to the German Government as expeditiously as possible. This Department would appreciate prompt advice of the action of the competent German authorities.
It is to be observed from the foregoing that the Treasury Department refers to the categorical statement of the German Foreign Office “That the German Government will abstain from a supplementary collection of taxes for the period since January 1, 1921, if the American Government grants reciprocity” and that this statement is a “binding official declaration of the German Government.” It will also be observed that the Treasury Department states that in view of this categorical statement and a proposed amendment by the Commonwealth Minister of Finance to his Order of August 10, 1923, it considers that the German Government will meet the equivalent exemption provision of Section 213(b) (8) of the Revenue Act of 1924 upon the issuance of the necessary orders referred to in the Ministry’s Note of September 3, 1924, under reference. The Treasury Department expresses the same opinion with respect to the years 1921, 1922 and 1923 under the provision of Section 213(b) (8) of the Revenue Act of 1921.
In bringing the foregoing to the attention of the Ministry, the Embassy is instructed to point out that upon the completion of the action proposed in the Ministry’s Note of September 3, 1924, the equivalent exemption provision of Section 213(b) (8) of both of the Revenue Acts of 1921 and 1924 will be satisfied and that the income of a nonresident alien or foreign corporation from sources within the United States which consists exclusively of earnings of a ship or ships documented under the laws of Germany will be exempt from Federal income tax and that such exemption will be applicable for the year 1921 and Subsequent years.
In view of the statement of the Treasury Department that certain German shipping concerns have been granted until December 15th to complete their 1923 tax returns, the Ministry will appreciate the desirability of advising the Embassy as soon as possible with respect to the action taken by the German authorities in the matter of the proposed amendment by the Minister of Finance of his Order of August 10, 1923, so that the Treasury Department of the United States Government may, in turn, be definitely advised in the premises.

Referring to the Note Verbale No. 935, dated November 29, concerning the taxation of shipping companies of both countries, the Foreign Office has the honor to inform the Embassy of the United States of America that, in accordance with the proposal transmitted in the Foreign Office’s Note Verbale of September 3, 1924 (V Steu 1489), the Federal Minister of Finance has now, by an order dated December 9, 1924, instructed the subordinate financial authorities to apply the order of August 10, 1923, to all companies which have their seat in the United States of America regardless of the location of their management.

Subject: Exemption of North American shipping companies from the corporation tax.
Under section 213, subdivision 8, of the Revenue Act of 1921 of the United States of America, the income derived exclusively from the operation of a ship or ships of a foreign company is exempted from the income tax if the company is subject to the laws of a foreign state which grants reciprocal rights to the United States. At the instance of the Embassy of the United States of America, I declare myself as agreeing, upon the assumption of full reciprocity and with the reservation of the right of revocation at any time, under authority of section 108, subdivision 1, of the Federal Tax Law, that in the case of companies operated for profit, whose domicile and place of management is in the United States of America, the income which is derived exclusively from the operation of ships shall not be subjected to the corporation tax. A corporation-tax return for the aforesaid income is not to be required of North American companies which maintain in this country a branch or other place of operation or a permanent representative. I request that the finance offices charged with making the assessments be notified forthwith.
If in individual cases doubt should arise, I ask that report be made thereof.

Subject: Exemption of North American navigation companies and shipowners from the income and corporation taxes.
By official order of August 10, 1923 (III C 7412) I have ordered, on the condition of complete reciprocity and subject to revocation at any time on the basis of section 108, paragraph 1, of the Federal Tax Law, that in the case of companies operated for profits, the domicile and location of the management of which is in the United States of America, income derived exclusively from the operation of ships shall not be subject to a corporation tax.
Moreover, I declare myself as agreeing that the official order shall apply to all companies which have only their domicile in the United States, regardless of the location of the place of management. Therefore, in case a corporation tax should have been imposed on a company in your district which has its domicile in the United States, but the place of management of which is not in the United States, such company shall also hereafter be exempted from the corporation tax, as well as its income derived exclusively from the operation of ships.
In explanation, I further point out that, on condition of complete reciprocity, the official order of August 10, 1923 (III C 7412) with the amplification resulting from the preceding paragraph, as well as the official order of January 5, 1924 (III C 14722) shall be applied, effective as of January 1, 1921.

The Ambassador’s note of July 26, 1927, with further reference to Reciprocal claims arrangement with Spain.
With respect to His Excellency’s request for a statement of the precise steps contemplated for the consideration of such claims, it is suggested (1) that each Government should submit to the other on or before a specified date in the near future, a list of the claims which each desires to urge for the consideration and allowance of the other, together with a brief statement of the facts. This Government would suggest that such lists should be exchanged by January 1, 1928. (2) Subsequently, at the expiration of an agreed period of time, say three months, required for the examination of the claims presented, the two Governments should designate representatives, one each, to confer together in an effort to decide upon the merits of the claims, and, if possible to concur in conclusions as to the appropriate disposition to be made of each of the claims presented. (3) The claims which the representatives agree should be paid shall be referred by them to the respective Governments with their recommendations. (4) Cases in which the representatives do not agree or in which the recommendations of the representatives are not accepted by the two Governments might be disposed of by such further agreement as might at the time seem expedient.
Accept, Sir, the renewed assurances of my high consideration.
Chargé d’Affaires ad interim of Spain.
Reference is made to this Government’s note of August 24, 1927, to the Chargé d’Affaires ad interim of Spain concerning an arrangement for the informal consideration of claims of the United States against Spain and Spanish claims against this Government.
As no reply to this communication has been received this Government is uncertain as to the acquiescence of the Spanish Government in the suggestions made therein. As previously indicated this Government is desirous of settling all outstanding claims between the two Governments and is willing to submit for consideration by the Spanish Government a list of claims in which it feels that satisfaction should be made. Before proceeding to the preparation of such list, however, it desires to be informed whether the arrangement proposed in its note of August 24, 1927, is concurred in by the Spanish Government and whether that Government will submit a list of its claims to this Government for use in carrying out the purposes of the proposed arrangement.
It is understood that the claims referred to are distinct from those of American citizens and proteges which have arisen in that part of Morocco commonly known as the Spanish Zone and which were made the subject of a special arrangement through my predecessor’s note of November 7, 1927, and Your Excellency’s note of February 1 [11], 1928, in reply thereto.
Accept, Excellency, the renewed assurances of my highest consideration.

Swedish Customs Regulations.
[Translation]
A master of a vessel belonging to a public yacht club or other similar association and which is not equipped for commercial purposes (pleasure yachts) shall, when the vessel arrives or departs from a port in the customs territory without being used for conveying goods other than foodstuffs and articles necessary for the vessel during the journey, be exempt from the duty to submit to the customs authorities a written report regarding the vessel and from obtaining a permit for it from the customs authorities.
When arriving from a port outside of the customs territory, the master may not visit any other port with the vessel than a customs port or a place where coast-guards are stationed. When arriving from and departing to a place outside the customs territory, it is the duty of a master to report personally to the nearest customs office or coast-guard station and to submit a certificate, issued by a public authority or the board of the association, showing the name of the vessel, number and tonnage, the name of the owner of the vessel and domicle, as well as the name of the association to which the vessel belongs.
If the owner or master of a pleasure yacht has here in the country been found guilty of illegal import or export of articles, the provisions granted in this section shall not apply to any of the vessels belonging to the association as long as he owns or commands the vessel. However, the advantages shall be discontinued not earlier than fifteen days after the General Customs Board has informed the board of the association of the misdemeanor committed.
The provisions of this section shall not apply to vessels belonging to an association in Sweden, provided His Majesty has not granted the association similar rights for its vessels, and shall not either apply to vessels belonging to a foreign association, unless Swedish pleasure yachts enjoy the same advantages in the respective country.

Given at the Palace of Stockholm, October 7, 1927.
His Royal Majesty has deemed fit to decree that salvage vessels and pleasure yachts referred to in sections 124 and 126 of the Customs Regulations, under the conditions mentioned in these sections, shall in Swedish ports be exempt from all those fees which are generally assessed for vessels in such ports, with the exception of pilotage fees where a pilot is employed.
This decree shall enter into force on May 1, 1928, on and from which day the regulations in the letter to the Board of Trade of April 24, 1863 (No. 23), relating to the exemption from certain fees in Swedish ports accorded vessels intended for diving and salvage activities, shall cease to be effective.
Let all concerned duly comply herewith. In faith whereof, We have signed this with Our own hand and have caused it to be confirmed by Our Royal Seal. The Palace of Stockholm, October 7, 1927.

I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of Your Excellency’s note dated October 22, 1930, in reply to my note dated January 3, 1930, addressed to Your Excellency’s predecessor, relating to the desire of my Government to obtain an agreement on the part of the Swedish Government to accord to American yachts in Swedish ports treatment in the matter of the payment of various port charges reciprocal to that which is now enjoyed by Swedish vessels calling at ports of the United States.
Your Excellency is so good as to inform me that, according to the terms of Section 126 of the Swedish Customs Regulations and of the Royal Decree dated October 7, 1927, yachts belonging to yacht clubs of countries where the same facilities are accorded to Swedish yachts are exempted in Swedish ports from all navigation dues—except dues of pilotage when they have actually a pilot on board—provided that they be furnished with a certificate delivered by the authorities of the country and on the understanding that they are not equipped for commercial purposes.
In conclusion Your Excellency states that, if my Government consents to grant upon a basis of reciprocity the same facilities to pleasure yachts belonging to Swedish yacht clubs, Your Excellency proposes that the note under reference and the reply which I may make thereto will serve as an agreement reached between our two countries.
In reply I have the honor to state that, inasmuch as the provisions of the Statutes of the United States for the collection of tonnage and light dues (U. S. Code, Title 46, Sections 121 and 128) permit the suspension of those charges in behalf of vessels of foreign countries which accord national treatment to vessels of the United States, I am accordingly gratified that there appears to be no further obstacle to the enjoyment by the pleasure yachts of each country of treatment reciprocal to that enjoyed in the ports of the other.
I avail myself of this opportunity to renew to Your Excellency the assurances of my highest consideration.

The undersigned plenipotentiaries duly authorized by their respective Haitianization accord
Vol. 39, p. 1659.
In that which concerns the Service National d’Hygiene, it is understood that in Conformity with the laws in force it will have, under the direction of the Secretary of State for the Interior, throughout the Republic, the administration, inspection, and supervision of all of the public services of hygiene, sanitation and quarantine of the hospitals, rural dispensaries, poor relief, insane asylums and sanitary garages, of the Medical School, the Health Center, the laboratories, etc.
Nevertheless, in the cities of Port-au-Prince and Cape Haitian, and their immediate environs (that is within a radius of two miles of the cities proper but including also Petionville) where, pending other arrangements and until the conclusion of a protocol for their evacuation, American troops are stationed, an American scientific mission shall be especially charged in accord with the laws and regulations now in force with the control of sanitation and chlorination of water.
The Service Nationale d’Hygiene will be entitled, if it so requests, to receive the advice and recommendations of the above mentioned scientific mission within the restricted field of sanitation.
The Government agrees to leave to the Mission the sanitary garages at Port-au-Prince and Cape Haitian and the motor equipment strictly necessary for its activities but the Service Nationale d’Hygiene may always requisition the material thus loaned by agreement with the Mission if the need therefor should arise.
The Government of Haiti agrees that in case of epidemic or grave danger menacing the public health within the above mentioned cities of Cape Haitian and Port-au-Prince the Mission will cooperate with the National Public HeaIth Service to combat the danger and for this purpose shall be authorized to make all necessary recommendations, and to make use of all the facilities and all of the organizations of the above mentioned Service; and the Haitian Government, under such circumstances, will take the necessary measures and provide the necessary credits.
The Mission provided for in the preceding article will comprise three American medical officers nominated by the Government of the United States and appointed by the President of Haiti. Their status will be assimilated so far as the salary that they receive from the public treasury is concerned to that of Public Health Officers first class provided for by the law of August 8, 1926. The Mission may also include, in addition, as a maximum six hospital corpsmen of the United States Navy who will be paid in conformity with a budget approved by the Minister of Interior upon the basis of the law of December 5, 1924.
The Mission will have the right to suitable offices at Cape Haitian and Port-au-Prince.
The funds necessary for the payment of the Haitian personnel and for the functioning of the sanitary services in the cities of Cape Haitian and Port-au-Prince will be provided for in a budget which shall be approved in advance by the Minister of Interior.
The Accord of August 24, 1918, regarding the communication of projects of Haitian laws to the Legation of the United States of America at Port-au-Prince, is and remains abrogated from this date.
If, nevertheless, the Government of the United States should deem a given law to be seriously inconsistent with any rights arising from provisions of agreements still in force, it will present its views to the Haitian Government through diplomatic channels for all proper purposes.
The Accord of December 3, 1918, relating to the visa of the Financial Adviser on orders of payment issued by the Secretary of State for Finance, on the Receiver-General of Customs, or on the National Bank of the Republic of Haiti, is and remains abrogated. The Minister of Finance shall reach an agreement with the Financial Adviser on the procedure governing the service of payments.
The abrogation of the visa implies an obligation on the part of the Government of Haiti until the liquidation of the services of the Financial Adviser-General Receiver to make its expenditures within the limits of laws and credits voted or decreed with the accord of the Financial Adviser. The Haitian Government will reach agreements with the Financial Adviser regarding the measures affecting sources of revenue pending the liquidation of the services of the Financial Adviser-General Receiver.
Since the Government of the United States believes that the discharge of the civilian officials and employees in the Services mentioned above in Articles I and II of the present Accord, will be unduly precipitate and has requested an indemnity for them, the Secretary of State for Finance in accord with the Financial Adviser is authorized to indemnify them upon an equitable basis from the general funds of the Treasury.
Specialists in the Service Technique who, upon the express request of the Government of Haiti, shall desire to remain in their former positions and sign the necessary contracts for this purpose with the Secretary of State for Agriculture shall not have the right to any indemnity by virtue of the liquidation of the Treaty Services.
While awaiting the settlement of the question of the Garde, the two Governments agree to maintain the “status quo” established by existing laws and agreements and to respect said laws and agreements.
Signed at Port-au-Prince in duplicate in the English and French languages this fifth day of August 1931.
Les plénipotentiaires, soussignés, dûment autorisés par leurs Gouvernements respectifs, ont convenu de l’Arrangement suivant:
En ce qui a trait au Service National d’Hygiène, il est bien convenu que, conformément aux lois en vigueur, il aura, sous la direction du Secrétaire d’Etat de l’Intérieur—et dans toute l’étendue de la République—l’administration, la surveillance et le contrôle de tous les services publics d’Hygiène, de Santé, de Quarantaine, des Hôpitaux, des dispensaires ruraux, d’Assistance publique, d’aliénés et de garages sanitaires, d’Ecole de Médecine, Centre de Santé, de laboratoires, etc.
Toutefois, pour les villes du Cap et de Port-au-Prince et leurs environs immédiats, (soit dans un périmètre do deux milles des dites villes à proprement parler, y compris exceptionnellement Pétionville)—où séjournent jusqu’à nouvel ordre—en attendant la conclusion d’un protocole de désoccupation—les troupes des Etats-Unis d’Amérique, une mission scientifique américaine sera spécialement chargée, conformément aux lois et règlements en vigueur, dans les villes du Cap et de Port-au-Prince, du service d’assainissement et de la chloruration des eaux.
Le Service National d’Hygiène aura droit, s’il le requiert, aux avis et recommandations de la susdite mission scientifique dans Ie domaine restreint de l’assainissement.
Le Gouvernement convient de lui laisser les garages sanitaires à Port-au-Prince et au Cap-Haitien et le matériel roulant strictement nécessaire à ses activités, mais le Service National d’Hygiène pourra toujours, si besoin s’en fait sentir, réquisitionner le matériel ainsi prêté, d’accord avec la Mission.
Le Gouvernement d’Haiti convient qu’en cas d’épidémie ou de grave danger menaçant la santé publique, dans les deux susdites villes du Cap et de Port-au-Prince, la Mission coopérera avec le Service National d’Hygiène pour la lutte nécessaire, et à ces fins, elle pourra faire toutes recommandations utiles, bénéficier de toutes les facilités et de toutes les organisations du susdit service, etle Gouvernement d’Haiti, en pareille éventualité, prendra les mesures et les crédits nécessaires.
La Mission prévue à l’article précédent comprendra trois officiers américains du Service Médical, proposés par le Gouvernement des Etats-Unis et nommés par le Président d’Haiti; ils seront assimilés, quant au traitement à leur payer par le Trésor public, aux officiers d’Hygiène publique de 1ère. classe prévus par la loi du 8 août 1926.
La Mission pourra comprendre, en outre, au maximum, six aides d’hôpital tirés de la Marine des Etats-Unis d’Amérique qui seront rétribués, conformément à un Budget approuvé par le Secrétaire d’Etat de l’intérieur, sur la base de la loi du 5 décembre 1924.
La Mission aura droit à un Office convenable au Cap et à Port-au-Prince.
Les valeurs nécessaires au paiement du personnel Haitien et au fonctionnement des services d’assainissement dans les villes du Cap et de Port-au-Prince devront faire l’objet d’un Budget préalablement approuvé par le Secrétaire d’Etat de l’Intérieur.
L’accord du 24 août 1918 relatif à la Communication des projets de lois haïtiennes à la Légation des Etats-Unis d’Amérique à Port-au-Prince, est et demeure résilié à partir de cette date.
Au cas toutefois où le Gouvernement des Etats-Unis jugerait telle loi en sérieuse opposition avec des droits découlant de dispositions d’accords encore en vigueur, il fera parvenir ses observations au Gouvernement d’Haiti, à telles fins que de droit, par les voies diplomatiques.
L’accord du 3 décembre 1918 relatif au visa du Conseiller Financier sur les mandats de paiement émis par le Secrétaire d’Etat des Finances sur le Receveur Général des Douanes ou sur la Banque Nationale de la République dl’Haiti est et demeure résilié.
Le Secrétaire d’Etat des Finances s’entendra avec le Conseiller Financier sur la procédure nécessaire au Service des paiements.
Le retrait du visa implique pour le Gouvernement d’Haiti, jusqu’à la liquidation des services du Conseiller Financier-Receveur Général des Douanes, l’obligation dl’effectuer ses dépenses dans les limites des lois et des crédits votés ou pris avec l’avis du Conseiller Financier.
Jusqu’à la liquidation desdits services, le Secrétaire d’Etat des Finances s’entendra avec le Conseiller Financier quant aux mesures affectant les sources de revenus.
Le Gouvernement des Etats-Unis ayant estimé prématurée la cessation des services des officiels et employés civils des services mentionnés aux articles 1 & 2 du présent accord et ayant requis une indemnité en leur faveur, Ie Secrétaire d’Etat des Finances en accord avec le Conseiller Financier, est autorisé à les indemniser sur une base équitable et sur les disponibilités du Trésor.
N’auront droit à aucune indemnité en raison de Ia liquidation des services du Traité, les spécialistes du Service Technique qui, sur la demande expresse du Gouvernement d’Haiti, voudraient conserver leurs anciennes fonctions et signer à cet égard les accords nécessaires avec le Secrétaire d’Etat d’Agriculture.
En attendant le règlement de la question de la “Garde”, les parties consentent à garder le statu-quo résultant des lois et accords actuellement en vigueur et à respecter Iesdits lois et accords.
Fait de bonne foi en double exemplaire, en français et en anglais, à Port-au-Prince, le 5 Août 1931.

Ho l’onore di accusare ricevuta della nota del 13 corrente con la quale Vostra Eccellenza mi ha communicato il testo concordato dell’Accordo reciproco tra l’Italia e gli Stati Uniti per l’ammissione di aeromobili civili nei rispettivi Paesi, il rilascio di brevetti di piloti, e l’accettazione di certificati per aeromobili ed accessori importati come merci. Tale testo risponde, a giudizio di Vostra Eccellenza, alle intese raggiunte durante i negoziati, ora terminati, tra i due Paesi.
Il testo comunicatomi dall’Eccellenza Vostra è qui appresso riprodotto in italiano:
Subordinatamente alle condizioni e alle limitazioni qui appresso contenute e stabilite, è consentito agli aeromobili civili italiani di circolare negli Stati Uniti d’America e, nello stesso modo, si permette agli aeromobili civili degli Stati Uniti d’America di circolare in Italia.
Ovunque, nel presente accordo, si citi uno dei due Stati, s’intende includere i suoi territori ed i suoi possedimenti.
Il diritto degli aeromobili di ciascuno dei due Stati, di entrare nel territorio dell’altro Stato, include altresì il diritto di transito attraverso tale territorio.
Gli aeromobili italiani, prima di entrare negli Stati Uniti, devono essere immatricolati e riconosciuti atti alla navigazione aerea dal Ministero dell’Aeronautica italiano; devono inoltre portare la marca di immatricolazione ad essi assegnata dal detto Ministero, preceduta dalla lettera “I”, posta su di essi giusta i regolamenti sulla navigazione aerea del Ministero dell’Aeronautica.
Gli aeromobili degli Stati Uniti, prima di entrare in Italia, devono essere immatricolati e riconosciuti atti alla navigazione aerea dal Dipartimento del Commercio degli Stati Uniti, e devono inoltre portare la marca di immatricolazione ad essi assegnata da quel Dipartimento, preceduta dalla lettera “N”, posta su di essi giusta i regolamenti del Commercio Aereo del Dipartimento del Commercio.
Il libretto del motore (ambedue obbligatori solo per gli aeromobili adibiti al traffico pubblico di passeggeri e di merci).
Gli aeromobili italiani che entrano in volo negli Stati Uniti debbono anche portare i certificati di immatricolazione e di navigabilità, rilasciati dal Ministero dell’Aeronautica italiano o dalla Autorità a tal uopo riconosciuta da detto Ministero. I piloti porteranno un brevetto rilasciato dal detto Ministero dell’Aeronautica italiano, unitamente a quelle licenze che possono essere prescritte dal Ministero stesso. Analoghe disposizioni saranno applicate in Italia per quanto concerne gli aeromobili degli Stati Uniti ed i piloti americani che entrano in volo in Italia. In quest’ultimo caso, i certificati e le licenze saranno quelle rilasciate dal Dipartimento del Commercio degli Stati Uniti e le licenze saranno quelle che potranno essere prescritte dal detto Dipartimento.

Arrangement with Japan for the reciprocal recognition of load-line certificates. Vol 45. p. 1492.
Your Excellency will recall that our respective Governments, together with other interested Governments, entered into an international load-line convention, which was signed at London on July 5, 1930. I am now instructed to inquire whether Your Excellency’s Government would be willing to continue the arrangement in respect of ship load-line certificates made between our two Governments in 1922, pending the coming into force of the above-mentioned convention of July 5, 1930.
In transmitting herewith a copy of the “Regulations for the Establishment of Load-lines for Merchant Vessels of 250 Gross Tons or Over When Engaged in a Foreign voyage by Sea”, I have the honor to request Your Excellency to be so kind as to supply me with a copy of the Japanese laws and regulations (with official English translations if they be available), pertaining to load-lines of merchant vessels.

I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of the Embassy’s note dated February 13, 1931, informing me, with reference to the arrangement made between our two Governments in 1922 in respect of ship load-line certificates, that a law entitled “An Act to Establish Load-lines for American vessels, and for other purposes” has been enacted, and became effective September 2, 1930, and inquiring whether or not the Japanese Government would be willing to continue the above-mentioned arrangement of 1922 pending the coming into force of the International Ship Load-line Convention, which was signed at London on July 5, 1930.
When the notes were exchanged between the Japanese and American Governments in 1922, no ship load-line law had been enacted in the United States, and the question of the recognition by the United States of load-line certificates of Japanese ships was not raised. Consequently, no definite arrangement was made regarding this matter, the Japanese Government merely undertaking unilaterally to recognize certificates issued by the American Bureau of Shipping, pending the enactment in the United States of a law regulating ship load-lines.
I wish to be assured, and request that you indicate in reply, that you have no objection to my interpreting your note, above-mentioned, to mean that pending the coming into force of the International Ship Load-line Convention, the Japanese Government will continue the arrangement of 1922 while the American Government will also recognize as valid load-line certificates duly issued by the competent Japanese authorities or by officially designated shipping associations, and their corresponding marks.
Pending the receipt of your reply, the Japanese Government will continue to regard the arrangement of 1922 as effective, and I trust that the American Government will also recognize as valid the ship load-line certificates issued by the competent Japanese authorities or by officially designated shipping associations, and their corresponding marks.
In compliance with your request, I have the honor to transmit herewith a copy of the laws and ordinances, together with a copy in translation, relating to ship load-lines.

The scheme also includes a 500-watt station on the shared channels for the city of Toronto for local service.
In adopting this plan, Canada would reserve the right to increase the power of the stations in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Northern and Western Ontario to 50 K.W. each, should such increase become necessary.
The committee, in addition to considering the power required, propose the following channels as suitable for the main stations:
| Prince Edward Island | 630 K.C. |
| New Brunswick | 1,030 K.C. |
| Nova Scotia | 1,050 K.C. |
| Quebec | 930 K.C. |
| Montreal area (1 K.W.) | 600 K.C. |
| “ “ (50 K.W.) | 730 K.C. |
| Ottawa | 880 K.C. |
| Toronto area (500 Watt) | 1, 120 K.C. |
| “ “ (50 K.W.) | 690 K.C. |
| Western Ontario | 840 K.C. |
| Northern Ontario | 960 K.C. |
| Port Arthur-Fort William area | 780 K.C. |
| Manitoba | 910 K.C. |
| Saskatchewan | 540 K.C. |
| Alberta | 1, 030 K.C. |
| British Columbia | 1, 100 K.C. |
In order to ensure satisfactory local broadcast service throughout Canada, it is proposed that stations, limited to a maximum power of 100 watts, be erected where necessary, and that they should be operated on shared channels. It is considered that one hundred or more such stations may eventually be required in Canada, and that twenty channels should be available for this type of service. In establishing such stations, it is proposed to maintain the same geographical separation between Canadian and United States stations as is maintained between United States stations of the same power.
Due notification would, of course, be given of the effective dates of any changes in the present operation to conform with the above plan.
In the event of the adoption of the above arrangement, it is understood that if, as the result of the Madrid Conference, any additional channels are made available for broadcasting, a further allocation will be made, as between the United States and Canada, on an equitable basis.
I shall be obliged if you will inform me at your early convenience whether the United States authorities can make the necessary readjustments so that these channels will be available for effective use in Canada.
I have the honour to be, with the highest consideration, Sir, Your most obedient, humble servant,
Acting Secretary of State, Washington, D. C.
Washington, May 5, 1932.
I am grateful for your courtesy in informing me by your note Response by United States.
In reply, I am glad to inform you that as notice is given from time to time of the dates of changes to be made in the present operations of Canadian broadcasting stations to conform to the plan set out, this Government will be glad to make the necessary readjustments.
It is understood that, if as the result of the Madrid Conference, any additional channels are made available for broadcasting, a further allocation will be made, as between the United States and Canada, on an equitable basis.
Accept, Sir, the renewed assurances of my highest consideration.

Als Luftfahrzeuge der beiden Vertragsteile gelten die in jedem Vertragsstaat ordnungsmässig eingetragenen Zivilluftfahrzeuge und die ausschliesslich für Handelszwecke benutzten staatlichen Luftfahrzeuge.
Jeder Vertragsteil gewährt in Friedenszeiten den Luftfahrzeugen des anderen Vertragsteils das Recht zum Luftverkehr über seinem Gebeit unter der Voraussetzung, dass die Bestimmungen dieser Vereinbarung beachtet werden.
Es besteht jedoch Einverständnis darüber, dass die Einrichtung und der Betrieb von regelmässigen Luftverkehrslinien eines Luft-fahrtunternehmens des einen Vertragsteils im Gebiet des anderen Vertragsteils oder über dieses Gebiet hinweg, mit oder ohne Zwischen-landung, an die vorherige Genehmigung des anderen Vertragsteils gebunden sein soll, die nach dem Grundsätze der Gegenseitigkeit und auf Antrag des Vertragsteils erteilt wird, dessen Staatsangehörigkeit das Luftverkehrsunternehmen besitzt.

Jeder der beiden Vertragsteile behält sich das Recht vor, zu verlangen, dass die Luftfahrzeuge die Grenzen seines Gebiets nur zwischen den von ihm bestimmten Punkten überfliegen. Vorbehaltlich der Mitteilung eines solchen Verlangens durch den einen Vertragsteil an den anderen und vorbehaltlich des Rechts, den Luftverk dir über bestimmten Zonen nach Artikel 7 zu verbieten können die Grenzen des Gebiets der beiden Vertragsteile an beliebigen Punkten überflogen werden.
Als Ballast darf nur feiner Sand und Wasser abgeworfen werden.
Unterwegs dürfen Gegenstände oder Stoffe äusser Ballast nur abgeworfen oder sonst entfernt werden, wenn die Behörden des Staates, dessen Hoheitsgebiet betroffen wird, die Erlaubnis hierfür besonders erteilt haben.
Soweit bei Ausführung dieser Vereinbarung Fragen der Nationalität zu berücksichtigen sind, besteht Einverständnis darüber, dass die Luftfahrzeuge die Nationalität des Vertragsteils besitzen, in dessen Register sie ordnungsmässig eingetragen sind.
Die Vertragsteile werden sich gegenseitig die für den Luftverkehr in ihrem Gebiete geltenden Vorschriften mitteilen.
Diese Vereinbarung kann dem anderen Vertragsteil gegenüber mit 60-tägiger Frist gekündigt werden. Sie endet ferner mit dem Erlass von gesetzlichen Bestimmungen durch einen der beiden Vertragsteile, die im Widerspruch mit dieser Vereinbarung stehen.
Ich wäre Euerer Exzellenz für eine Mitteilung dankbar, ob der Wortlaut der Vereinbarimg in der obigen Form die Zustimmung Ihrer Regierung findet. Bejaliendenfalls darf ich das Einverständnis damit voraussetzen, dass die Vereinbarung mit dem 1. Juni 1932 in Kraft gesetzt wird.

Arrangement between Germany and the United States of America Providing for the Acceptance by the One Country of Certificates of Airworthiness for Aircraft Imported from the Other Country as Merchandise.
[Here follows the German text of the arrangement, articles 1 to 4, inclusive, which is the equivalent of the English text communicated by the American Ambassador in his note of May 27, 1932, ante, page 160.]
I would be grateful if Your Excellency would inform me whether the text of the arrangement in the above form meets with the approval of your Government. If so, I venture to assume concurrence that the arrangement shall go into effect on June 1, 1932.
I avail myself of this opportunity to renew to you, Mr. Ambassador, the assurance of my highest consideration.

I have the honor to refer to your Excellency’s note of March 31, Arrangement with Belgium for the reciprocal recogniton of load-line certificates.
Pursuant to instructions from my Government, I now have the honor to inform Your Excellency that the substance of this note and the text of the excerpt of the Belgian law of August 25, 1920, submitted therewith, have been examined by the competent authorities of my Government.
In answer to the inquiry whether the American Government does not share the view of the Belgian Minister of Transports that the reciprocal agreement concerning the inspection of vessels, existing between the two countries since June 1, 1922, would be applicable to the control of load lines, I have the honor to inform Your Excellency that the competent authorities of my Government do not believe that this agreement could be interpreted to cover load lines, and that they consider it would be preferable to negotiate a separate arrangement.
The Government of the United States has taken due notice of the Belgian law which provides that “the freeboard of vessels shall be determined in accordance with the rules and freeboard tables of the French Bureau Veritas or of Lloyds Registry of Shipping, or in accordance with rules and tables recognized as equivalent thereto.”
In connection with this provision, my Government is willing to conclude a reciprocal agreement in regard to load lines with the Government of Belgium with the understanding that the rules and freeboard tables employed by the French Bureau Veritas and by Lloyds Registry of Shipping are the freeboard rules and tables of the French Government and the 1906 rules of the British Board of Trade, respectively.
Subject to the above understanding the Government of the United States is prepared to agree that pending the coming into force of the International Load Line Convention of 1930, in the United States and Belgium, the competent authorities of the Government of the United States will recognize the load line marks and the certificate of such marking on the merchant vessels of Belgium made in accordance with either of the foregoing systems of rules and tables as equivalent to load line marks and certificates of such markings made pursuant to the laws and regulations of the United States; provided, that the load line marks are in accordance with the load line certificates; that
have made the vessel manifestly unfit to proceed to sea without danger to human life.
It will be understood by this Government that on the receipt by the Embassy of a note from Your Excellency to the effect that the competent authorities of the Belgian Government will recognize the load line marks and certificates thereof on merchant vessels of the United States, executed pursuant to the laws and regulations of this Government, as equivalent to load line marks and certificates made in accordance with the laws and regulations in force in Belgium, and expressing the Belgian Government’s concurrence in this Govern-ment’s understanding as above set forth, the agreement will become effective.
I avail myself of this occasion to renew to Your Excellency the assurance of my highest consideration.
Minister of Foreign Affairs.
Recognition by Belgium.

Je n’avais pas manqué de porter à la connaissance de M. le Ministre des Transports les termes de la lettre de l’Ambassade en date du 7 octobre dernier, No. 708, au sujet de la conclusion entre les deux pays d’un accord provisoire concernant la limite de charge des navires.
J’ai l’honneur de vous faire connaître que les règles et tables de franc-bord que rappelle l’art. 161 de l’arrêté royal du 8 novembre 1920, formant règlement d’application de la loi sur la sécurité des navires, sont bien les règles et tables de franc-bord du Gouvernement français, appliquées par la Bureau Veritas et les règles de 1906 du Board of Trade britannique appliquées par le “Lloyd’s Register of Shipping.”
Etant donné que le Gouvernement des Etats-Unis estime ne pas pouvoir se rallier à la proposition qui lui a été présentée, d’appliquer en matière de franc-bord l’accord de réciprocité concernant la sécurité des navires, conclu en 1922, le Gouvernement du Roi accepte l’arrangement proposé par le Gouvernement des Etats-Unis.
Celuici aura donc un caractère provisoire et est destiné à prendre fin dès que les deux Gouvernements auront ratifié la Convention internationale sur les lignes de charge et que celle-ci aura été mise en vigueur.
Le Gouvernement du Roi déclare, en conséquence, que, par mesure de réciprocité répondant aux mesures annoncées par le Gouvernement américain, le Gouvernement belge admettra, qu’en attendant l’entrée en vigueur aux Etats-Unis et en Belgique de la Convention Interna-tionale sur les lignes de charge du S juillet 1930, et sous réserve des conditions énoncées ci-dessous, les autorités compétentes du Gouvernement belge reconnaîtront les marques de ligne de charge et le certificat de démarcation des navires de commerce sous pavillon des Etats-Unis établis conformément aux lois et règlements en vigueur aux Etats-Unis, comme étant équivalents aux marques de lignes de charge et certificats de ces démarcations établis conformément à la loi belge.
Cette reconnaissance est subordonnée aux conditions suivantes:
Connaissance est donnée du présent arrangement aux services belges d’inspection maritime qui reçoivent pour instructions de l’observer dès à présent.
Il convient de remarquer que la correspondance qui a été échangée au sujet de la question traitée ci-dessus est antérieure à l’arrêté royal du 14 septembre 1931 qui permet aux propriétaires belges d’obtenir pour leurs navires le franc-bord établi conformément au règlement annexé à la Convention Internationale sur les lignes de charge signée à Londres, le 5 juillet 1930; cet arrêté royal introduit donc dans cette question un élément nouveau dont il n’a pu être tenu compte.
Mais cette circonstance n’est pas de nature à énerver l’arrangement proposé attendu que le règlement américain sur les francs-bords est identique au règlement annexé à la Convention mentionnée.
Puisque le Gouvernement des Etats-Unis est disposé à reconnaître les francs-bords des navires belges attribués suivant les anciennes règles, le Gouvernement du Roi estime donc acquis qu’il reconnaîtra également le franc-bord assigné dans les conditions prévues dans le nouveau règlement belge sur la matière. Il estime cependant opportun d’attirer encore l’attention du Gouvernement des Etats-Unis sur le fait que, suivant ce dernier règlement la marque de l’autorité habi-litée en Belgique pour l’assignation des francs-bords consiste dans les lettres B. I.lorsque le franc-bord est établi par le service officiel belge qualifié à cet effet.
J’ai l’honneur de vous faire parvenir à ce propos les 3 exemplaires de l’arrêté royal du 14 septembre 1931 ainsi que 3 formulaires du certificat de franc-bord du modèle utilisé par !’inspection maritime belge.2
Je vous saurais gré, Monsieur le Chargé d’Affaires, de m’adresser une communication marquant l’accord du Gouvernement des Etats-Unis au sujet du présent arrangement.
La date de cette communication pourrait être considérée comme indiquant la mise en vigueur de l’arrangement.
Veuillez agréer, Monsieur le Chargé d’Affaires, l’assurance de ma considération la plus distinguée.
Chargé d’Affaires des Etats-Unis,
Bruxelles.

No. C.24/354
I did not fail to inform the Minister for Transportation of the contents of the Embassy’s note of October 7 last, No. 708, concerning the negotiation between the two countries of a temporary agreement on load-line regulations of vessels.
I have the honor to inform you that the regulations and tables of load lines which are mentioned in article 161 of the royal decree of November 8, 1920, constituting a ruling for the application of the law concerning the safety of vessels, are the regulations and tables of load lines of the French Government as given by the Veritas Bureau and the rules of 1906 of the British Boara of Trade as given in “Lloyd’s Register of Shipping.”
As the Government of the United States feels that it cannot assent to the proposal that has been submitted to it, of applying in the matter of load-line regulations the reciprocity agreement concerning the safety of vessels, concluded in 1922, the Government of the King accepts the arrangement proposed by the Government of the United States.
This arrangement will have, therefore, a temporary character and is destined to come to an end as soon as the two Governments shall have ratified the international agreement concerning load lines and as soon as this agreement shall come into force.
The Government of the King declares, consequently, that as a measure of reciprocity corresponding to the measures stated by the American Government, the Belgian Government will, in the interim before the enforcement in the United States and in Belgium of the international agreement on load lines, of July 5, 1930, and with the exception of the conditions set forth below, permit competent authori-ties of the Belgian Government to recognize the marks of the load lines and the certificates of these lines for merchant vessels under the United States flag, when these are established in conformity with the laws and regulations in force in the United States, as being equivalent to the marks of the load lines and the certificates of these lines established in conformity with Belgian law.
This recognition is subject to the following conditions:
The Belgian Maritime Inspection Service has been notified of the present arrangement and instructed to observe it henceforth.
It is appropriate to point out that the correspondence exchanged on the subject discussed above, precedes the royal decree of September 14, 1931, which allows Belgian shipowners to obtain for their vessels the load line established in conformity with the ruling forming an annex to the International Load Line Agreement signed at London on July 5, 1930; thus this royal decree introduces into this question a new element which it has been impossible to take into consideration.
But this Circumstance is not of a character to affect the proposed arrangement since the American ruling on load lines is identical with the ruling forming an annex to the agreement above mentioned.
Since the Government of the United States is disposed to recognize the load lines of Belgian vessels assigned according to the old regulations, the Government of the King takes it for granted that the Government of the United States will likewise recognize the load line assigned according to the conditions provided in the new Belgian ruling in this matter. The Government of the King considers it opportune, however, again to call the attention of the Government of the United States to the fact that, in accordance with this latter regulation, the assignment of load lines consists of the letters B.I. when the load line is established by the official Belgian authorities qualified for this purpose.
I have the honor to forward to you in this connection three copies of the royal decree of September 14, 1931, as well as three copies of the official form of load-line certificate used by the Belgian Maritime Inspection Service.
I should appreciate your addressing me a letter stating the assent of the Government of the United States to the present arrangement.
The date of this communication could be considered as signifying the coming into force of the arrangement.
Be so kind as to accept, Sir, the assurance of my most distinguished consideration.
Chargé d’Affaires of the United States,
Brussels.

Brussels, April 19, 1932
I have the honor to refer to Your Excellency’s note of Februaiy 4, 1932 (Direction Générale B, Section I.B./Comm., No. C.24/354) and to its enclosures, regarding the conclusion of an arrangement between Belgium and the United States for the reciprocal recognition of ship load-line certificates.
My Government agrees, as requested in this note, to recognize the certificates issued by the Government of Belgium pursuant to the Royal Decree of September 14, 1931, which allows Belgian ship owners the privilege of obtaining for their vessels the load line established in conformity with the ruling which forms an annex to the International Load Line Convention signed at London on July 5, 1930.
The Government of the United States accordingly understands that the arrangement has been completed by the exchange of notes and is effective from the date of this note.
I would greatly appreciate confirmation of this understanding, and I avail myself of this occasion to renew to you, Mr. Minister, the assurances of my highest consideration.
Minister of Foreign Affairs.
