 3722 EMBASSY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Paris, November 17, 1948 No. 1211 62 Stat., Pt. 2, p. 2223. 62 Stat., Pt. 2, p. 2228, 2242. 62 Stat., Pt. 2, p. 2233. EXCELLENCY: I have the honor to refer to the Economic Cooperation Agreement between our two Governments which was signed on June 28, 1948, and to call your attention to an apparent discrepancy between the English and French texts in paragraph 5 of Article IV. The English text in question reads as follows: ". . . from any point of entry in France to the consignee's designated point of delivery in France . . .". The French text of this passage reads as follows: ". .., depuis le lieu d'entr6e en territoire m6tropolitain francais, jusqu'au point de destination indique par le destinataire en territoire metropolitain frangais." In order that the paragraph under reference in the French text may have the same territorial applicability as that in the English text, when considered in the light of Article XI, I suggest that the French text be amended to read as follows: ". . ., depuis le lieu d'entree en France, jusqu'au point de destination indiqu6 par le destinataire en France." If you agree, I propose that this note and your reply constitute a record of agreement to the abovementioned suggested amendment to the French text of the Economic Cooperation Agreement. Please accept, Excellency, the renewed assurances of my highest consideration. His Excellency M. ROBERT SCHUMAN, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Paris.

Consequently, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has the honor to inform, the Embassy of the United States that it is in agreement that the official text in the English language relating to Article XII, para- graph (b), should be amended in its presentation, in conformity with the indications given in note No. 907 of the Embassy of the United States, but that it considers it unnecessary to make an amendment in the original text in the French language.
