Trade With the Soviet Bloc: Lists of Goods Controlled for Strategic Reasons N July 26, the President of the Board of Trade announced in the of Commons that, following consulations with other OHouse countries, agreement had been reached on a reduction of the lists of goods other than ships, the export of which to the Soviet Bloc (as distinct from China) is controlled for strategic reasons. Certain problems of definition had still, however, to be worked out. Although one or two definitions have yet to be settled, it is now possible to publish below the new lists of the items, other than ships, the export of which is controlled by the United Kingdom for strategic reasons and which may not, therefore, be exported to the Soviet Bloc countries without approval. The general effect of the revised controls is to reduce the embargo list by about 80 items, and the quantitative control list by about 70 items and to enlarge the area of permitted trade in a large number of categories remaining under control. Examples of the last include general purpose machine tools, electric generating plant, locomotives and railway equipment, chemicals and chemical plant. List I shows the goods which are subject to embargo and List 11 the items which are subject to quantitative limit~. For the convenience of traders List I includes the munitions and atomic energy items which have for several years been subject to embargo in the United Kingdom. These goods were outside the scope of the President's announcement on July 26. The number of items in List I is accordingly greater than that mentioned by the President. For technical reasons and in order to facilitate matters for traders, some of the definitions used differ slightly from those agreed by the Co-ordinating Committee on East-West Trade. In no case, however, do the amended definitions alter the scope of the controls agreed by the Co-ordinating Committee. Most of the necessary changes in export licensing are brought about by the Export of Goods (Control) (Amendment No. 2) Order, 1954see page 788 of this issue. Exporters should address any inqui~ies concerning these lists either to the Board of Trade, Commercial Relations and Exports Department, Horse Guards Avenue, London, S.'V.l (from which further copies of the lists may be obtained) or to the Production department for the item concerned. Applications for export licences or for further information on the types of goods for which an export licence is required should be addressed to the Board of Trade, Export Licensing Branch, Atlantic House, Holbom Viaduct, London, E.C.l.

Imports of Lemon Juice frolll the U.S.A. THE Board of Trade announce in Notice to Importers No. 679 that arrangements have been made for the import of a limited quantity of lemon juice containing not more than 65 per cent. by weight of commercial sweetening matter, from the United States of America to be purchased with dollars made available under Section 550 of the Mutual Security Act (M.S.A.). 2. No private imports of lemon juice from the United States of America have been made in recent years and it is therefore proposed to issue licences to traders who imported lemon juice from all other sources during the calendar year 1953. 3. Traders who wish to participate in this quota should submit, in the first instance to the Ministry of Food, Canned Fish, Fruit and Vegetable Division, Great Westminster House, Horseferry Road, London, S.W.1, not later than October 25, 1954, a statement in the following form and certified by an iridependent practising accountant: " During the calendar year 1953, we imported lemon juice, containing not more than 65 per cent. by weight of commercial sweetening matter, to the value of .[, c.i.f. These goods were paid for by us direct to the overseas supplier.
