Mr. Frederick Erroll, Conserva- Live, quoted reports that Gennan exports are plannect to reach a level in 1052-33 of between 130 und 100 per cent of the pre-war figure.
Not only to motor cars, selenti- and fle Instruments, machinery ship-building, but also in cotton textiles, Germany is energing us a considerable competitor, he said. Japan is competing with Hei- tain on a graving scale in textiles, watelies and clocks, ceramies, shipbuilding and ship-repairing.

General Douglas MacArthur will always ensure that Japan's prices are à te lower than the British.; he asserted.
Mr. Edwards, in reply, said, that what is disturbing British indus- try is that inay have Japanese prices and trade practices in the future leading to what is rightly or wrongly called unfair or cul- throat competition.
