31st July, 1918.

I am instructed by the Director of the War Trade

Department to refer to your letter of the 5th instant

and the letter from this Department of the 27th instant,

relative to the export of goods for Switzerland in

Japanese vessels, and I am to enclose herewith, for the

information of Mr. Secretary Long, copies of a letter

and enclosure which have been received from the Foreign

Office on the subject.

In deference to the views expressed therein, Lord

Emmott is of opinion that it is not desirable that any

change should be made by which goods may be exported to

that destination by the vessels in question.

I am,

Sir,

The Under Secretary of State, etc. etc., Colonial Office.

Your obedient Servant,
