HC Deb 13 April 1910 vol 16 c1229
Mr. FREDERICK WHYTE

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether statistics were available showing the emigration of Germans to countries on the Mediterranean littoral and to the Near East; whether similar statistics were available showing the emigration from the United States of America to Canada and the Far East; and, if so, whether he could supply them to the House in such a form as to show the annual movements of emigration for the last ten years?

The PRESIDENT of the BOARD of TRADE (Mr. Buxton)

I am not aware of any official statistics showing separately the emigration of Germans to countries on the Mediterranean littoral and to the Near East. The official statistics of the United States relating to emigration only commenced in July, 1907, and only show the emigration of aliens.
