Effect of Prince of Wales Visit..
The newly formed Anglo-South American Association, 25, Hay- market, S.W., state-
Already the Prince of Wales's visit to the rich countries of South America has stimulated trade between those countries and Great Britain.
We estimate that the next will: twelve months! returns show an increase in trade of from 15 per cent. to as much a 30 per cent. Already big contracts involving large sums have come to this country from both the Argentine and Chile; while, stirred by the Prince's words of how we are losing trade, British merchants are actively setting to work and sending out their representa- tives.
Within the next few weeks a deputation of Venezuelan "busi- ness men is proposing to. visit this country with the purpone- of talking over a table with our own business'men, to show them that although the Prince was not able to visit Venezuela this little republic, which, for its size.. has more British capital invested in it than any other of the 17 South American Re- publics, is determined that in- dustrial intercourse between Latin-America and this country shall be developed to the utmost.
