60 STAT.] DENMARK-AIR TRANSPORT SERVICES- ct . 23 Dec. 5, 1647 Mar. 21, 1946 Agreement containing the above mentioned amendments to the text of the Annex to the Air Transport Agreement. I avail myself of this opportunity to renew to you, Sir, the assur- ances of my highest consideration. IENRIK KAUFFMANN The Honorable JAMNE F. BYRNES Secretary of State Department of State Washington, D.C. The Secretary of State to the Danish Minister DEC 5 1945 Six: I have received your note of October 23, 1945 in which you advise the Department that by Royal decree of September 29, 1945 the Air Transport Agreement between the United States of America and Denmark, effective provisionally from January 1, 1945, has been con- 68 Stat. 1458. firmed by the Danish Government. The Department is gratified at this action, and is pleased to advise you that it considers this agreement as being definitively in force as from the date of the aforementioned Royal decree. You also inform the Department that you have been instructed to discuss with the American authorities two amendments to the Agree- ment as follows. 1. A change of the last lines in Section B of the Annex amending 58 Stat. 1461 . them to read as follows: "Denmark to the United States and points beyond, via intermedi- ate points; in both directions." I am pleased to inform you that the Department agrees to this change in wording suggested by the Danish Government. You also inform the Department that the Danish Government ac- cepts the suggestion of the American Government that a clause be inserted at the end of Section A of the Annex, the effect of which 68Stat.1461. would be to grant rights of transit and non-traffic stop in Greenland to United States airlines operating between the United States and Europe. Since the first paragraph of Section A already grants these rights to United States air services operating on the route to Den- mark, it is now suggested for purposes of clarity that the proposed final paragraph of Section A read.as follows: "Rights of transit and non-traffic stop with respect to Greenland are also granted to United States airlines on a route or routes be- tween the United States and Europe." 80634°-48-I-T .
