The Secretary of State to the EcuadoranAmbassador DEPARTMENT OF STATE WASHINGTON Aug 23 1948 EXCELLENCY: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your notes Nos. 175 and 177, of July 8 and July 12, 1948, respectively, requesting on behalf of your Government the renewal, with modification, for a period of four years, of the agreement entered into on June 29, 1944, between the Government of the United States of America and the Republic of Ecuador, providing for the assignment of a United States Military Mission to Ecuador. I am pleased to inform you that the proposed changes are acceptable to this Government with the exception of the proposed change in Title III, Article 7. The Department of the Army is of the opinion that the deletion of reference to the Chief of the Mission in the deter- mination of mission duties is not in the best interests of the Mission. In the event that the above proposal is acceptable to your Govern- ment, I shall consider this note and your response to that effect as completing the agreement between the two governments for the renewal of the agreement of June 29, 1944. Accept, Excellency, the renewed assurances of my highest con- sideration. For the Secretary of State: CHARLES E. BOHLEN His Excellency Senor Don AUGUSTO DILLON, Ambassador of Ecuador.
