United Kingdom, of g pds for home trade or export, but raw materials them- selves may not be exported in certain cases without licence. The following aro some of the raw materials for export of which licenses are required. Alu- minium, antimony, brass, copper, fron, lead, nickel, apelter or zinc steel, and tin.
"
The general rule has been to remove. restrictions on all manufactured goods while retaining them in the case of raw, materials. The following is a list of the most important articles the export of which was formerly prohibited to all countries but is now permitted to parta of the British Empire qutside the United Kingdom: Articles manufactured of alaminium; articles manufactured of asbestos; cotton belting including belt- ing impregnated with balats or rubber; complete bicycles, tyres and parts of bots and shoes except chlidren's with soles or uppers of leather; brooms and brushes except tooth brushes; copper and manufacturce thereof except wire, bars, platos, rods. sheets, strips and tubes; galvanised sheets; corrugated or flat grindstones; glass for optics! instru- menta; hand tools for agriculture do mestic hallow ware of iron or steel; iron and steel plates, rivets, nuts, screws- iron and stool wire and cloth; incan. descent mantles and rings; linoleum, magnesite and magnusite bricks; wire nails; photographic materials; rubber manufactures, except surgical gloves; black steel sheats; smäll tools waggons and carts and parts thereof; manofactores of wool and hair not to, inelade raw wool ar yarns; jute cordage and twine padding and webbing; twist and piece goods: magnetos and parts. thereof; surgical magnetos and parts thereof; surgical bandages and pressings Certain fautors will continue to retard. delivery for export trade, notably (1) shortage of labeur until the army can be demobilised; (2) shortage of tounago; and (3) the fact that certain industries will require reorganisation of plant be fore they can revert to their normal activities. The effect of these factors will diminish greatly in few months. Every effort is being made by all departs, nents of Stato to assist in the recon straction of the British export trade, the Importance of which is fully realised.
