Press Comments On Exports.
Drive & New War Loan
"LONDON, MAR, 7 (REFTER)-THE EXPORTS DRIVE WAS THE SUBJECT OF COMMENT IN THE BRITISH PRESS YES- TERDAY.
The Times praises the members of the Export Council for having come to grips with their task in a workmanlike way, while the Manchester Guardian points out that the Council stands to get all the kicks and not much of the praise.
The morning papers were also occupied with the new 3 per cent. War Loan.
