    A result by \textit{A. Dvoretzky}, \textit{A. Wald}, and \textit{J. Wolfowitz} [Ann. Math. Stat. 22, 1-21 (1951; Zbl 0044.150)] on the essential completeness of the class of nonrandomized decision rules is generalized to a statistical decision model with noncompact decision space. The generalized result is obtained as a direct consequence of an existence result for an allocation problem arising in economics.
