HONG KONG TRADE HOLD-UP

Exports Destined For China

London, 'Mar. 9.

Mr. William Teeling, Conservative, asked in the House of Commons today what was being done about exports destined for China which had been held up in Hong Kong in the last six months.

Mr. George Bottomley,, Secretary for Overseas Trade, regretted he had no figures available as Hong Kong was the general distributing cen- tre for the Far East and it was not possible to distinguish goods imported for resale, or on shipment to China, from those destined for other markets,

Mr. Teeling: "Is the Minis-† case of Slam, it is a soft cur ter aware China has quite re- rency area and we shall not be cently closed the market to very anxious."
