It is understood that dollars may be used in the United

Kingdom, Denmark, and Greece.

It is not illegal to use dollars for shopping, etc. but

probably will not be accepted in Switzerland and Ireland.

In Austria there are a few shops which are authorized

to accept dollars.

Although the Norwegian Embassy said it was illegal to

use dollars, a tourist who just carae back from Norway had

no difficulty in using dollars - dollars were freely ac-

cepted.
