!‘INANC!AL'.' By Byitish Empire. Shipments Most of $78,483,938 Total Comes From That Source By the Associated Press. British Empire gold shipments to pay for war supplies boosted gold imports last week to $78,483,938. The Commerce Department said that the import total, which was $32,000,000 higher than the preced- ing week, included more than $75,~ 000,000 of British Empire metal. These shipments included $14,638,- 6168 from the United Kingdom, $51,- 833466 from Canada, $8,239,103 from South Africa, and $661918 from India Sweden, invaded Norway’s neigh- bor, and the Netherlands, which have been shipping substantial sums of gold in recent months, sent none last week, possibly as the result of German occupation of most of Nor- way, in the path of Sweden’s route, and invasion of Holland. Both countries, however, have been re- ported to have sent most of their gold to the United States or other places of safety already. +At least part of the British gold was deposited under earmark in the Federal Reserve Banks, where the total of such deposits by all coun- tries increased $21,272,592 to $1,256,- 959.973. Silver imports amounted to $799,- 936 last week, only about half those of the preceding week. Shipments included $483164 from Mexico and $26.447 from Canada. Gold exports totaled $3,002 and silver exports $51,112. Commodity Prices K.
