British Trade In China, More might be done by the authorities at home to remind firms in the United Kingdom of the existence of British Chambers of Commerce abroad and there would soon be less talk of the decadence of British trade in foreigo fields. There are many points upon which Chambers of Commerce could protest the exporter ignor ant of the difficulties that have to be faced in different locali. ties. There are jealousies and prejudices which interfere, risks to be undertaken when competition is keen and a hun- dred and one other drawbacks to trade in China which the already | prosperous British manufacturer, content with his share of the plums, does not oare to tackle without the certainty that the business is secure, honourable and profitable. Mr. Bennett we think Iakes a rather gloomy view of British trado in China) but no doubt much,could be done that ia not done to keep it shead of the foreign trade invasion..

How long they may have to wait for this cannot at the moment bo predict ed. The present indications are that before Parliament is again convened the Constitution will have been revised, making pro- vision for a new legislative body very much smaller than the one which has recently been virtually suppressed by the President's Mandato cancelling the seats of over thre hundred mem- tors од the ground that they belonged to a seditious organisation. The memorial of the Tatahs deals mainly with the accessity for a smaller legislative body. They urge that with eight' hundred legislators there is cer tain to be "more talk then work." They describe the Parliament as too unwieldy. "During the seven months Parliament was sitting, it squandered several million dollare, bat did no legislative work- did not even attempt shoh piece- meal legislation as oharacterised the sessions of the former Nation-

It now remains to be seen what President Yaan will be able to accomplish. He certainly bas managed to carry affairs through up to the present, and there is doubt that if he can discredit and dissipate certain GBuret Societies in China that things will be easier for himself and, on the whole, better for the people
