HC Deb 02 March 1965 vol 707 c205W
53. Sir C. Osborne

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer since the expansion of world trade for the last 19 years has been aided by the flow of United States dollars, which is now to cease, if he will discuss with the United States Government the steps to be taken jointly to avoid a world economic crisis like 1929 which resulted from the ending of United States overseas aid; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Diamond

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply which my right hon. Friend gave to the hon. Lady the Member for Hitchin (Mrs. Shirley Williams) on 25th February.
