THE STORY OF JAPANESE COMPETITION
(Continued from Pago 6.)
development of the Japanese chemical industry is not the least; remarkable feature of her recent expansion.
The force and extent of Japan- ese competition cannot be explain- led away in, this manner. It re- mains to be seen what Great Britain can do to meet it effective. Jy.
One thing is certain: if Japan-| eso prices are lower than ours, it le no use our wasting time in idio complaint. It behoves us to take prompt and vigorous steps to put ourselves as far as possible on a competitive basis. If we are the progressive nation that we have always claimed to bo, wo should not be too proud to learn from nower. rivals. Obviously, there are some directions in which British Industry of taelf can do nothing. British producers can- not, and would not if they could, depress the standard of living of their workpeople to the level of 19 eta n. that of the Japanese, adequate though this may be for an Oriental race living in an Oriontal climate. But a different standard of living does not mean that we cannot do business with Japan. Standards of living are no bar to trade, ne witness the wide divergencies existing amongst people in". Eng- land who regularly do business with one another.

British manufacturers cannot take steps to stabilise the ex- changes. That is a matter, to be left to Governments. But there are directions in which British Industry can, and must, work out its own salvation. Can we afford to do less than the Japanese are doing to give service at a price which customers are now prepared to pay? Can we afford to do less than they are doing regarding the organisation of their industry In- to large units, and the effective planning of export trade? The benefit of large organisations la not merely theoretical, While · I was in Japan Inst winter, a reason. able reciprocal arrangement was concluded betaveen British and Japanese manufacturers of synthe- tid nitrogen. The speedy and successful
of
this conclusion arrangement was, I am convinced, due largely to the fact that the
Creat Industry In
Britain is organised through the British Sulphate of Ammonia Federation, of which J.C.I. is the sole selling agent. This enabled a few leaders on the British side to meet and discuss matters" with complete nuthority with an equal number of Japanese representatives.
mora
This leads me to the point which I have already laboured on more than one occasion, and that is, the vital necessity for more meetings between British and Japanese In- dustrialists, making for harmonious trade relations. The Japanese sa well as ourselves would prefer.. co-operative action to the present insensate competi tion. It is up to us to do all we can to cultivate this feeling, so that we may correct and control the situation. I put it again to British manufacturers that the time is ripe to express to the Japanese our desire to come to understandings with them over as wide field as possible. As an earnest of my conviction, I ALEY sending but to Japan this summor a strong commission representa- Live of IC.I. to discuss a number. of matters in the chemical deld. Not only will it be to the proft of British industry to take this course, but unless some such action is taken soon, conditions in the next year or so are likely to become more neute.
