Senate Probes Stem British Boycott Pressure
Washington July 21 three district inquiries into the general assault on American trade by European belligerents were pressed as the State Department finalizes its interpretation of the British boycott and enforcement plans. The White House reviews all facts to aid a broad protest and the administration weighs Germany's stance as the boycott dispute tempers U.S. policy toward both sides. The effort hinges on how the United States handles the British embargo and whether Germany alters its approach to American commerce.
