TRADE WITH DENMARK PROHIBITED
STATEMENT MADE BY MINISTER
(United Press Association)
AUCKLAND, April 17.
A statement that trading with Denmark was prohibited as the country was in enemy occupation was made today by the Minister of Industries and Commerce (the Hon. D. G. Sullivan), who said that did not apply to Iceland or the Danish dependencies of Greenland and Faroe Islands, so long as business with them did not involve intercourse with Denmark.
Proper returns should be made to the custodian of enemy property of all moneys which, but for the enemy occupation of Denmark, would be payable to persons or concerns in Denmark and of any property held or managed in New Zealand for such persons and concerns. The Minister also urged caution about transactions with any part of Norway without previous consultation with the Industries and Commerce and Customs Departments.
