European Custom Limits Increased

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Students traveling in Europe this summer will have the advantage of more lenient import and export customs limits. A new ruling by the Tourism Committee of the Organization for European Economic Cooperation allows the importation and exportation--without duty--of two cartons of cigarettes, two pints of perfume, two quarts of spirits, and $400 worth of souvenirs and purchases.

In addition, United States customs exemptions have been increased so that Americans can take back to the United States, duty free, $500 worth of goods, provided they have been outside of the United States at least 12 days.

The Tourism Committee also announces that additional efforts have been made this year to insure fair prices and courteous treatment of tourists this summer. According to the committee, the national tourist bureaus of E.R.P. nations have made effective measures to curb and correct abuses.
