The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in Great Britain ( Page )
2779. Your 3636, 24th. It is not desired that British Government issue permits for amount sugar-beet seed in excess of existing permits. [Page 535] On contrary, owing German and Austrian embargoes, seed now coming forward or to be brought forward this season will net total one-half of the 140,000 [140,300] bags for which permits granted, and probably much less than one-half. Substitute permits desired for shipments specified in Department’s 26981 and 2748 because some of ultimate recipients had not obtained permits. These are Edward Starke 2,200 bags, Jacob Savageau 1,800 bags, A. Bencoe 1,200 bags, DeRekowski 3,000 bags, and Winterhalter 3,200 bags.
