INDIA THREATENS TO CANCEL ALL HER TRADE CONCESSIONS
DISPUTE WITH SOUTH AFRICA
ww
Gonora, August 21. India has indicated that she may have to cancel trado concessions to all other countries if an attempt is made to force her to relax her boy- cott of South Africa.
Mr. B. N. Adarkar, deputy economic adviser to the Indian Government, of a meeting here yester- day of the 22 countries who signed the Genevu Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, said that "it would be a pity if all the trade agreements con- cluded between India and the 21 other coun- tries had to be scrapped because of the diffi- culties with South Africa."
"All the
