Memorandum
I should be much obliged if you would ascer
tain for me from the Board of Trade what is the
import duty on pearl buttons imported into England.
These buttons are manufactured in Japan, Switzerland,
central Europe etc. etc. Is it the case that the
duty on imports of the same description varies
according to the countries of origin?
Can you also inform me what is the imnort
duty on pearl buttons in India.
Adviser to the Government.
