§ 2. Sir L. Plummerasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he is aware that the proposals of the Government of the United States of America to exercise censorship on all political literature entering the United States of America will result in discrimination against British writers and publishers; and if he will take steps to avoid the loss of dollar exports this will entail.
§ Mr. Dodds-ParkerTwo Bills were introduced into the United States Congress this year to empower the United States postal and Customs authorities to censor political publications entering the United States. Neither Bill however was adopted. There was no suggestion of discrimination against British publications, and I see no reason to suppose that a similar Bill, if it became law in the future, would materially affect our dollar exports.
