§ Mr. D. GRENFELLasked the President of the Board of Trade whether his attention has been drawn to the Report of the Financial Committee of the League of Nations, which was endorsed by the Council of the League, and which maintains that world trade is being strangled, default on the part of the debtor States rendered more probable, and that creditor States should withdraw the impediments in the nature of tariffs, quotas, and 2318W other such measures; and whether he is taking steps to apply these recommendations to our relationships with other countries?
§ Mr. COLVILLEI am aware of the Report in question, which has not yet, I understand, been adopted by the Council of the League. The observations contained in it were called forth, I suggest, rather by the actions of other countries than by those of this country.
