PRINCE'S PLEA

London, Oct. 17. In his speech at the opening of the International Motor Show at Olympia to-day, the Prince of Wales referred to the export trade, observing that it was obvious that the world market for motor vehicles, however large already, was still only in the preliminary stages of its growth. He urged British manufacturers to study how best to increase their share in that expanding market, and commented favourably in that con nection on the fact that while the average horse-power of exhibits last year was 15, it had risen this year to 10%-British Wireless.
