The great growth of the rayon industry in the United Kingdom has been accompanied by a similar expansion of this industry in the New World and the Far East, the most serious competition to the British producers of rayon coming from the latter locality. Japan, the United States, France, Italy and Great Britain are all pro- ducers of rayon for the export markets, There are many grades of this commodity and certain

They have preferred rather to follow the traditional British practice of selling durable Ligh-grade goods at a reasonable price. In recent months the British industry has been assisted in the British colonial market by the Introduction of a quqia system of Imports. For example, in February of last year, no rayon piece-goods secured entry Into the British West Indian colony of Jamaica, but during the same month Jamaica imported 263,000 square yards from the Far East.
