65. Sir J. HARMOOD-BANNER

asked what were the exact quantities of wool shipped from Australia and South America, respectively, to Italian ports in 1912, 1913, 1914, and 1915; has any portion of the shipments of wool to Italy in 1914 and 1915 found its way to Germany through Switzerland; and, if so, what steps are being taken by the Allied Governments, including Italy, to prevent Germany from obtaining wool in this manner?

Mr. JAMES HOPE (Treasurer of the Household)

The answer to this question contains numerous statistics, and with the permission of my hon. Friend I would propose to have it printed in the OFFICIAL REPORT.
