ENEMY GOODS CONDEMNED BY PRIZE COURTS.

HC Deb 14 August 1916 vol 85 c1442W

Sir J. D. REES

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether or not the Prize Courts have condemned goods on the sole ground that they are enemy property?

Lord R. CECIL

I am informed that about £3,000,000 or £4,000,000 worth of enemy goods were condemned soon after the outbreak of war.
