The Minister in Rumania (Wilson) to the Secretary of State

Bucharest, August 4, 1930—4 p.m.
[Received August 4—2:52 p.m.]

29. Department’s telegram No. 17, July 28, 7 p.m. Rumanian Government accepts all changes proposed by Department except following:

1. Desires to maintain paragraph 2, article 1, as in original Rumanian draft granting shipping most-favored-nation treaty [treatment] instead of national proposed by Department. Rumanian ships have number of special rights and privileges in Rumanian ports which would otherwise have to be listed in agreement as exceptions to national treatment.

2. Wishes to maintain subdivision (c), article 4, as in original Rumanian draft, finding Department substitute less clear.

Wilson
