The Joint Boycott Council announced plans today for formation of a Pan-American Boycott Committee to extend the anti-German boycott into South and Central American countries.
A survey by the council, referring to twenty Latin American countries, shows that the United States is the largest purchaser of their goods, having disposed of 30.4 percent of their total exports during 1937, while Germany’s share of these exports amounted to only 8.9 percent. However, Germany’s share of imports into Latin American countries has risen from 10.9 percent in 1929 to 15.4 percent in 1937, while our share has decreased from 38.5. percent to 33.9 percent.
