The Acting Secretary of State to Senator Eugene D. Millikin 1
My Dear Senator Millikin: Reference is again made to your letter of April 20, 19482, requesting the State Department’s comments on S. 2511, a bill “Repealing section 202 (e) of the Sugar Act of 1948.”
In view of the fact that the intent of this section of the Act has been widely misunderstood and that circumstances under which the use of this section might be considered desirable now appear remote, the Department perceives no objection to its repeal.
The Department has been informed by the Bureau of the Budget that there is no objection to the submission of this report.
Sincerely yours,
Counselor
