Economist's Views On Lee's Cotton Mission To Colony
London, Apr. 11.
The Economist, independent weekly, said today Sir Frank Lee's Board of Trade, mission to Hongkong evidently found the Colony's textile industries no more ready to put a voluntary limit on its export of cotton cloth to Britain than when Lancashire sent the Glegg mission early last year.
The journal went on
"It was Hongkong's blunt re- fusal to fall in with India and Pakistan in any voluntary scheme of limilation that anal- ly wrecked that previous attempt) to satisfy Lancashire's desiro for some form of protection from Commonwealth competition.......

"But the Bialement the colony's special negotiating com- mittce put out after 12 days of discussions could be read. suggesting that the Permanent Secretary's visit (Sir Frank Leo's) may have been of value for Lancashire.

"In it Hongkong stated its willingness to wik directly with Lancashire about a scheme of
nitation provided "the" indus** fry here reaches a prior agres- ment with India and Pakistan,"
Hongkong had also said that, by entering into talkę, exporters would not be committed to any the figure for exports and that discussions would be confined to shipments of grey cloth re- tained in Britain.
