Miss Jennifer Forsyth, Palais des Nations, Geneva
Dear Miss Forsyth,
Thank you for sending me back the maps. As to your questions the answers are the following:
1. yes;
2. imports below 1% are represented by the blanks, whereas the names of the countries with a percentage between 1 and 15 or 20 are underlined;
3. in this map too the percentages refer to the share of the United States, Great Britain and Germany in total imports from the three countries again. The blanks for France, [Spain] [and] the Netherlands East Indies are due to the fact that each of the three percentages is below 40; they must therefore have been almost equal;
4. this map refers to all imports, not only the commodities considered in the other maps; the year of reference is 1928.
Yours very sincerely,
(J. Tinbergen)
