The Acting Secretary of State to the Yugoslav Minister (Pitamic)

Sir: I am requested by the Acting Secretary of the Treasury to transmit to you a statement of the amount due from your Government December 15, 1933, under the provisions of the debt agreement of May 3, 1926, including the amounts due on June 15, 1932, and June 15, 1933, which were not paid, and to request that payment of the amount due be made either at the Treasury in Washington or at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

While the debt agreement requires thirty days’ advance notice in case your Government desires to make payment in obligations of the [Page 920] United States issued since April 6, 1917, the Acting Secretary of the Treasury states that he will be glad to waive the requirement if your Government wishes to pay in that manner. Following is the Treasury’s statement of the amount due:

Principal and Interest Due From the Government of Yugoslavia, December 15, 1933

Amounts due prior to December 15, 1933, but not paid $525,000.00
Total amount due and payable December 15, 1933 $525,000.00

Accept [etc.]

William Phillips
