No. 50

Mr. Ambassador: I have the honor to refer to Your Excellency’s kind note No. 562, in which you were good enough to suggest an interchange of notes between the Embassy under your worthy charge and this Ministry, concerning the transmission of messages of third parties by amateur radio stations in the following form:

“Amateur radio stations of Peru and of the United States may interchange messages on behalf of third parties, provided that such messages shall be of the character that would not normally be sent by any existing means of electrical communication or except for the availability of the amateur stations, and on which no compensation must be directly or indirectly paid.

“This arrangement shall apply to the United States and its territories and possessions including Alaska, the Hawaiian Islands, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, the Panama Canal Zone and the Philippine Islands.

“This arrangement shall be subject to termination by either government on sixty days’ notice to the other government, by further arrangement between the two governments dealing with the same subject, or by the enactment of legislation in either country inconsistent therewith.”

I take pleasure in advising Your Excellency that my Government gladly accepts the proposal that you have been good enough to make in your note above mentioned, in the foregoing terms.

I avail mystel [etc.]
