Memorandum by the Irish Minister
(MacWhite)
Washington, 15 December,
1933.
On consideration of a satisfactory liquor quota being allocated
to the Irish Free State, my Government undertakes, subject to
consideration of prices and quality, to increase purchases of
American wheat and to explore sympathetic possibilities of
increasing purchases of other American products.
Quite recently the Irish Free State purchased a large quantity of
its wheat requirements from the North Pacific Export
Association. During the past week, 3, 100 bales of hops have
been shipped direct from San Francisco to Dublin.
