3988 RECIPROCAL TRADE-CA~ADA. As I informed Mr. Herridge in my note of December 27, 1934,' this question is considered of importance by the United States Gov- ernment and I am therefore gratified to receive the assurances set forth in your note under acknowledgment. I wish to thank you particularly for your assurance that pending the entry into force of the legislation in question, the Canadian authorities will, to the extent of their administrative discretion, give the fullest possible effect to the principles agreed upon. It is also noted with appreciation that in accordance "ith our recent understanding, the Canadian Parliament will be invited to permit, under regulation, the entry free of duty and charges of incidental purchases by residents of Canada returning from the United States, not exceeding one hundred dollars in value. Accept, Sir, the renewed assurances of my high consideration. CORDELL H TILL Mr. HUME WRONG, Charge d'Affaires ad interim oj the Dom'inion oj Canada. 1 Not printed. [No. 91]
