INDIA BRITAIN'S BEST CUSTOMER, Viscount Peel, Secretary for Indio, who also responded, said he wanted to say a word about india, in its capacity as the best customer Great Britain had. During the Unst three years the average of the exports from. Great Britain that went to India was about 120 millions sterling, which was very nearly larger-in spite of what the Premiers of Dominions said very nearly larger than the whole of the import into these countries in these years from Great Britain. Mr. Jowph Chamberlain' once said that it was necessary to say a thing three times in the House of Commons bo- "fore it was appreciated or understood. He was going to say this just once" India is your best customer, and my advice, my lords and gentlemen, is this: Cherish, un derstand; and sympathiso with the wants and requirements of your greatest cum tomer." (Cheers.)
