BRITAIN INCREASES STRANGLEHOLD OF BLOCKADE

THE SIGNING OF AN Anglo-Turkish trade agreement was one of the most signi- ficant items in the news yesterday. Under this agreement, Britain will have a larger share in Turkey's markets, and the British Empire will become Turkey's chief customers.

The agreement is a smashing blow to the virtual monopoly in the Balkans which Ger- many had obtained by buying goods and not paying for them.

Turkey has large... agricultural surpluses. In recent years, Ger- many has bought much of this on credit, and either not paid, for them or forced on the Turks ship- loads of canaries and train-loads of aspirin.

Turkey was one of the first countries to resist this prelimin ary to German domination, and when Germany failed to pay cash restricted her exports. Germany still, however, got about half of her exports.

Under the Anglo-Turkish agreement, the trade balance will be settled promptly by pay. ments from a special account in sterling.

The political importance of the agreement needs no emphasis. Turkey once more expresses her determination to stick to her al- liance with Britain, and her dis- trust of Germany and contempt for German trade methods:
