Governor, Federal Reserve Bank.,
Dear Si:-:
In connection with applications of :rr..etal mining companies for licenses to export gold to Mexico in satisfaction of
the Mexican reimportation requirements., you are requested to see
that the reports submitted by applicants on form X-1146B give the
necessary details before forwarding the applications to the Board.
Nany

i~roper

reports have been received by the Board. Model of a

correct return an this form is enclosed herewith.
Confusion has arisen in the minds of applicants as to the
section of the report calling for
"Proportion of an;ount named in application to be used
to satisfy Mexican reimportation decree. Gold Silver"
The inforrration called for by this item is simply a
division of the sum total of the amount presently applied for as
between reimportation requirements against gold and against silver.
For instance, if the total of the application
estirrnted export to the

Unite~

is $40,000 and the

States is $20,000 gold and $801 000

silver, then the figures for this item should be $10,000 (100%)
under 11 gold 11and $20,000 (25%) under 11 silver. 11

The last sect ion asks for a report as to the proposed
disposition o£

-;~-r,,

cold applied for if the license is granted..

The entire amour.t for which license is asked should be divided
amoung the various uses to which it is expected the gold will
be appiied, such classification to be estirr.ated -from knowledge
based on the use of gt1ld received under previous licenses.

Respectfully.,

Assistant




Secretary~
