HC Deb 11 March 1915 vol 70 c1547
14. Mr. PETO

asked the President of the Board of Trade, whether his attention has been called to the figures of export from this country to Denmark for the month of January of cotton yarns 281,000 pounds, as compared with 94,400 pounds for the corresponding month of 1914, and 88,700 pounds for the corresponding month of 1913; and whether he will see that in future at least equally strict watch will be kept over shipments from this country of presumed enemy destination as will be enforced in the case of goods from neutral countries?

Mr. ROBERTSON

The figures in question appear to be correct. The answer to the last part of the question is in the affirmative.
