Sir Auckland Geddes, responding to the toast, said, there was no reason that be could see why, in the near future, the country should not be more successful and prosperous in trade and commerca-thab it had ever been, provided always that the people of the country realised one or two simple conditions of succes. The figures of imports and exports for last month were great, but there was a wide margin between imports and exports, which meant that they were still, as they were throughout whole years of the war, building up debt, or, at all events, dimin ishing credit in countries overseas.

Thera was no reason why, in a few months, that should not be wiped out. I was an | Tress Materials, Flannel and Flannelette, extraordinary fact that to-day there were serge. Almeen, de, te, Blankets, Counter more men and women engaged in industrypans, Hosiery, Children's Suits, Jersoya, than ever in the history of the country, Handkerchiefs, &c. but it was also a striking fact that there were still nearly a million men coming: from the Services not yet employed, and until these men were employed their tion as a nation could not be satisfactory. neither could there be attainment of in- dustrial peace so long as these men, wi

vill. ing and anxious to work, were unemploy ed. There lay before them a great task, that of increasing production, and it was only by increased volume and the valuo of the services of the Mercantile Marina that it would be possible to get that stream of exports which was necessary to balance, and more than balance, the stream of imports. The Government could help by its own action to remove some of the obstacles which stood in the way of increased exports, but some were outside Government control altogether."

We were enemies with the Australians but the terrible' fight was against the dynasty which has been now overthrown. We are now a young republic, sharing in the principles of freedom and equality with Australia, which owes its brilliant economic cultural ascendancy to the de mocratic methods which we are now following."

The President continues by appealing to the democracies for sympathy for an feebled and exhausted Austria, which is suffering from economic confusion and tamins, only, curable, by a generous trade with bar late enemies,
