It will be noted that charges during the period under reference were counterbalanced by credits to a net sum of $8,779.62 (credit), and that charges through December 31, 1946 aggregate the grand total of $367,118.17. Of this amount a total reimbursement of $34,000 is due from Your Excellency’s Government under the terms of the Agreement. Since payments in the amount of $33,000 have been received, however, the balance outstanding is $1,000.
