British Move

specia, 20 Fu "eDNL"

London, June 19.

Government action against the importation of German motor cars is foreshadowed by notice of a motion which Sir John Simon, Chancellor of the Exchequer, will move in the House of Commons tomorrow, transferring the customs duties at, present levied under the Finance Act on motor cars to the Import Duties Act.

This will enable the Imports Advisory Committee to review the situation and, if it thinks fit, to increase the duty.—Reuter.
