§ 49. Air-Commodore Harveyasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer how much United States capital has been invested in British industry during the current year.
§ Sir S. CrippsI regret that this information is not available.
§ Air-Commodore HarveyWould the Chancellor of the Exchequer say what the trend has been in such investments since devaluation?
§ Sir S. CrippsI am afraid I cannot, because those figures are not collected separately.
§ Sir W. SmithersIs it at all surprising that Americans are not investing? If I were an American I would not have a single dollar in this country, with this Government in power, because it would be a bad risk.
