In view of the above, the payment by the Polish Government of the interest instalment due on June 15th, 1933 has unfortunately also become impossible.

Under these circumstances the Polish Government is compelled to request the Government of the United States to take the above under advisement and to defer similarly the payment of the instalment due on June 15th.

The Polish Government declares its readiness to communicate all the data and information which might be found necessary and, referring to the declaration made by the Ambassador in Washington on January 18th, 1933, is ready to consider with the Government of the United States the matter of the aforesaid debt in its entirety.
