The Minister in Bolivia (Feely) to the Secretary of State

No. 501

Sir: I have the honor to refer to this Legation’s despatch No. 500, dated December 28, 1932, File No. 122 [624.11241/8], regarding the steps that had been taken by this office to conclude an arrangement whereby American consular officers stationed in Bolivia may import into this country free of duties personal effects and articles for personal use, reciprocal privileges being enjoyed by Bolivian consular officers in the United States.

The Legation on December 29 received a note from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs regarding this matter. A copy of this note, together with a translation thereof, is enclosed herewith.13 It would appear that the Bolivian authorities will consider the matter definitely arranged after an accord has been reached as between the Department and the Bolivian Legation in Washington.

Respectfully yours,

Edward F. Feely
