Bentor's correspondent at British Headquarters reporta to-day: Yesterday's fighting was the heaviest that has ever occurred in Flanders since the present offensive. The enemy developed "two great thruste, the first being a continuation of his effort against Kemmel and the ground westward. The second was a new attack betweez Laclytte, which is kilometre north-east of Scherpenberg hill, and the spot whers, his, line crosses the Ypres-amines Canal, Later his second attack extended southward and linked up with the battle proceeding around Drancourt, thus forming a continuona struggle on a front of ten miles. The enemy employed win-at-any-price tactics and continued pushing "forward fresh formauons from his, reserves wherever ina front threatened to get thin through casualties. The Ger mans can certainly, show a considerable gain of territory but they have paid the full price for every yard. It cont thom three attempts in mass to get into Locre and four "attempts to carry the brewery south of Vormezeels,... the trains of which we had converted into a miniature redoubt. German wireless accounts of the fighting show the tremendous scale of the attacks.

„THE EMPIRE'S POST-WAR TRADE.
London, April 20
The final report of Lord Balfour of Burleign'a. Committee on Commercial and industrial policy after the waz, says in view of the shortage of the worlu qanage any policy tending to check the use of the ports by foreign supping is inex pedient although it may be desirable to impose restrictiona on enemy' shipping temporarily. The Committee do not think that any attempt to wake the kipirs self-supporting in respect of 841 raw materials is practicable or econeincally sound, but a selective policy is necessary, with due regard to probenie, military needs. The Committee deem it unwise taw at the exclusion of izoreign (other than the pre- sent enemy) capital from sharing, in the development of, the Empire, it recommends ¡legislation compelling the dis- closure of foreign interests in particular cases and that mineral and other properties be not secured by foreign con- cerns in order to prevent their development and check competition in supply, the Dominion and Colomal Gov- ernments to have measures of control over the working of properties where commodities of great imperial importancë are concerned. The Committee recommend the adoption of a uniform policy by the Governments concerned. It does not recommend special restrictions on participation of aliens commercially or industrially, but pilots and patent agents should be british born and the registration of foreign commercial. tzávellers should be considered. Alien enemies should be temporarily subject to Police regulations after the war. The committee disfavour the establishment of an Imperial Bank of industry but suggest Government action to safeguard the development of pivotal industries. The Entare British economic policy should include & serious at- tempt to meet the declared " wishes of tac: Dominions, Colonies and Ladia for the readjustment and development of their economic relations with the United Kingdom; also an effort to develop trade between the Empire and the Allies Subject to the Allies agreeing, present enemy countries shall not, at least temporarily, be allowed to trade wim the Empire unrestrictedly sa before the waz "or on equal terms to Allies and neutrals. · The committee recom- mand action similar to the Canadian ́against dumping goods. Preferential treatment should be accorded to the Overseas Empire in respect to Custome-dues now or hereafter, im- posed in the United Kingdom. Other forms of Imperial preference should be considered. Protection should be afforded a certain number of industrise on Pecommendations of a strong independent board. The committes oppose the metric sad decimal coinage systems. They recommend the prohibition of the importation of enemy gooda för-at-lemag a year after the war.
