The Secretary of State to the Peruvian Ambassador DEPARTMENT OF STATE WASIINGTON January4, 1945 ExCELLENCY: I have the honor to acknowledge receipt of your note of December Ant, p. 1594. 21, 1944, which refers to informal conversations which have been held by officers of the Department with Dr. Eduardo Garland, Minister- Counsellor of the Peruvian Embassy, regarding a Second Peruvian- United States Cooperative Fellowship Program and expresses the desire of the Peruvian Government, in view of the excellent results of the First Program, to undertake a similar agreement with the Gov- ernment of the United States. I have noted that it is proposed that the program cover fifteen (15) fellowships at the graduate level for study in the United States, ex- penses and responsibilities of which would be divided between the Peruvian Government and the Government of the United States, the latter having the cooperation of the Institute of International Edu- cation. The specific conditions governing the procedure for carrying out the program have been noted and this Government is in entire accord with them.
