I joined with Senator MONDALE and Representatives BLATNIK and BERGLAND in addressing a letter to Mr. Vernon D. Acree. Commissioner of the U.S. Customs Service. to express our full support of the transfer of jurisdiction of these five customs ports of entry to the Duluth. Minn.. Customs District. In that letter we stated: we feel that this change is in the best interest of the State of Minnesota in that it allows uniform customs and immigration service along the entire MinnesotaCanadian boundary. Mr. President. the mail I have received from Minnesota constituents on this matter clearly indicates broad support for this transfer of jurisdiction. primarily because it will greatly expedite administrative procedures.
