Sir: I have the honor to inform you that I have
received a dispatch from Mr. Contostavlos, minister of foreign affairs,
dated Athens, Greece, this day, by which his excellency informs me that
the Greek Government has abolished the prohibition hitherto existing of
the importation of American hog products into Greece, said decision to
take effect on and after the 22d of this month.
His Majesty’s Government has come to this decision, having been
satisfied, from the numerous inquiries recently made in this country,
that there is not any danger to the public health in allowing the
importation of American hog products into Greece.
