importers Get Huge Profits on Foreign Made Merchandise (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Dec. 24. American importers now purchasing goods in England, France and Italy for ship

ment to the United States, are waxing j fat as a result of the depreciation of i the pound sterling, the franc and lira, i

according to stories now going the rounds of the New York wholesale district. The only "fly In the ointment" for

the American buyers abroad is the t

fact that, by a presidential order several weeks ago, United 8tates consuls are required to keep tab on big purchases,, ascertain the-selling price and cable these facts to the United States customs authorities. Then, by figuring the rate of exchange on the date of purchase, the government Is enabled to set a proper value upon the goods for" the collection of Import duties. A Court of Claims passes upon what are alleged to be unfair appraisals.
