Dear I* Price,
Thank you veryrauol'.for having sent
me a copy of your draft report, I got it on
September 13 with the request to let you have
my comments by the middle of Beptemoer or in any
case oy the end of it, I think the Dest thing
I can do is to send you the very few i*eniarka I
have "by air, of v/hich I enclose a copy in the copy
of the manuscript which I was asked to send "back
to your Embassy in the Hague.
I thought the "best thing I could
I^Y^*^ do as to reading to pick out some chapters raore
specifically comieoted with ray ovai duties, and
80 I read most of part IV as far as dealiwj with
Europe. I think you presented the Dutch situation
as well as ray i^rsonal views very correctly and
I read with great interest what you vTrote on the
subject generally, Jnst one or two minor points
there are on v/hich I warit to draw JOXLT attention.
On pap;e 601 you mention A9k9 as the year in
which the bustoras Convention in Benel\uc was signed
and ratified. I suppose this must be 19U7 since
our coi iiuon tariff came into operation on Jantiary 1
1948,
On page 608 in the note there is just one e nidslng at the end of the word "Iijiropeae", ""
I hope you excuse the futility of
the last remark which iTiay show yo-s.?. that I imve
no more substantial things to say.
With rei>eated thanks»
yotirs very sincerely.
