(By "Telegraph Staff Representative )
There has been a movement afoot in Canada and the United States for many years, led by men of economic vision, the main aim of which is to encourage trade between Canada and the United States on one hand and China on the other.
Japan came into the picture, too, but not to the same extent as China; for it was felt that the potentialities of the Chinese market were vast enough to dwarf the commerce it might be possible to develop with Japan, highly industrialised and fairly self-contained in the matter of foodstuffs for some time to come, with Formosa, Korea and Manchukuo helping to supply the demand of Japanese
consumers.
But China was different. There was a market there, providing the country had the purchasing power, which would make possible the multiplying of trans- Pacific commerce by thousands. The possibilities were incalculable.

Canada, although the business mezz of the country may have been slow to recognise it, needs just such a market as China in order to feal her infant industries. For a long time progress in trade between Canada And China has been low, however, and money was hesitant when it was asked to enter a Far East enterprise. It was expensive; and there was risk,
