HC Deb 16 March 1916 vol 80 c2287W
Mr. MacVEAGH

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether steps will be taken at the forthcoming economic congress of the Allies in Paris to preserve equally the interests of all the Allied countries in the great neutral trade markets of the world, especially in the Far East and in South America, and to make certain that no arrangements will be entered into likely to affect or weaken in any way the existing trade in these great markets?

Sir E. GREY

I presume that this will be one of the aims of the proposed conference.
