Board of Trade to Foreign Office.-(Received December 9.)
Sir,
Board of Trade, December 7, 1907. WITH reference to your letter of the 4th ultimo, transmitting copies of a despatch and telegram from His Majesty's Ambassador at Tôkiô, in connection with the proposed Convention between Great Britain and Japan for the mutual protection of trade- marks in China, I am directed by the Board of Trade to state, for the information of Sir E. Grey, that they are of opinion that the proposal in Article I to authorize the continued use of trade-marks, which for three years prior to the Convention have already been in use, is objectionable, and consequently that the Convention should not be entertained unless the clause in question is omitted.
I have, &c. (Signed) T. W. P. BLOMEFIELD.
