BRITISH TRADE

THE TURN OF THE TIDE AT LAST.

EXPERT'S OPTIMISTIC VIEW,

LONDON, February 19. Ad optimistic view of British trade was taken by Mr. Kellaway in a pesch at Luton in which he said that reports he had received showed that the tide was turning, particularly with regard to the inter-imperial outlook. The prospects for inter-imperial trade were more promising than the prospects anywhere else in the world. The Australian market had been closed for months but, there were indications that that would soon be changed. The same applied to Canada and South Africa. It was imposible to speak so confidently with regard to India. but there were indications that trade with India would improve. One reason we lost markets was our high cost of production making competition impossible. That was not due to high wages, but to the fact that we had not got a fair return for high wages. Britain had lost contracts worth £10,000,000 because exporters and merchants were unable to give a definite date of delivery owing to ptrikes and threatened strikes.
