d. Authorization for local eettliMent in for
of claims against the t veer r nt, without recourse
ri e le -A slation by Congress in each case, when
p
foreign law clearly places liability on the organi..s tion.
Such thhorization would be beneficial to local relation-
ships in overseas areas where such claims mot presently
be refused or await long and tedious passage of private
bills in Congress. This process is difficult to explain
to foreigners who are in a position under their own laws
to take action which could prove erbarassing to PDT.
It is conte plated: that if such authority were granted
actual settlements would be made only with the concurrence
of the Agency (.general Counsel.
