18. Paragraph 2 of my telegram 16, November 16, 1 p.m., should be corrected to read as follows:
(2) American owned securities payable in specified foreign currencies acquired before September 8 need not be declared but application from exemption from obligation to declare must be made; such exemptions will in practice be granted. Securities acquired after September 7 must be declared and may not be disposed of without permission.
