§ Mr. WILESasked the Secretary to the Treasury if he is aware that importers of 2275W goods into this country are now compelled to enter at the Customs House the name and address of the shipper of such goods as well as the name of the first receiver, thus suffering disadvantage by divulging to their competitors and customers the exact source from which their goods come; and, if so, will he give instructions that arrangements may be made for adopting some other method of Customs entry?
§ Mr. MONTAGUI am informed by the Board of Customs and Excise that arrangements have been made whereby the actual importer may disclose direct to the Customs his own name and that of the consignor abroad, and thus avoid the necessity of disclosing these names to the person who passes the Customs entry. I am sending the hon. Member a model of the declartaion approved for use in this connection.
