§ 66. Commander BELLAIRSasked the President of the Board of Trade the value of merchandise imported into the United States from Great Britain and Northern Ireland free of duty, and the value of the merchandise imported from the United States into Great Britain and Northern Ireland free of duty, for the latest year for which the figures are available?
§ Mr. A. M. SAMUEL (Secretary, Overseas Trade Department)I have been asked to reply. In 1924 the duty-free imports into the United States from Great Britain and Northern Ireland amounted to 30½ millions sterling; and those into Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the United States to 215½ millions sterling. There is no later figure available yet as to their duty-free imports from us; but our duty-free imports from them rose in 1025 to 221 millions sterling.
