AUSTRALIA'S TRADE
EXHIBITION TOURIST SHIP NOT A SUCCESS
It is reported, from Australia' that as a result of the success of the voyage of the Nieuw Holland to Java and Singapore it is propen
to send a similar trade ship to China and Hong Kong-

THE JAVA SUGAR MARKET
Messrs. Pentreath & Co, have for- warded as the following report on the Java, Sugar Market, dated July 27, from the Maclaine Sugar, Co., Ltd., Saurabaya:-
India. A sale of 9/3,000 tons to Karachi, it is believed for account of Afghanistan buyers, at 7/8id. has been the outstanding feature of a dull week. The equivalent of this price is approximately f£.58
China-Latest cables report that China's buying power is extremely low and this is more than confirmed by the negligible enquiries received from Hong Kong and Shanghai.
The general feeling among mem-L.o.b. bers of the delegation which has just roturned to Australia seemed to be apt elation at the immediate results, although it has been stated that many orders had been booked -but, quiet confidence that the way had been prepared for an expansion of trade with the countries visited Mr. Ralph Simmonds, who uc companied the Nieuw Holland on the recens tour of the East Indies as the representative of the "Mel" bourne Herald, has collected some overseas criticisms of Australia's efforts.

Had that been so, had not the trade exhibition appeared more like a mere tourist boat and the story got around that as a spectacle it was disappointing Singapore would
"I'm have flocked,
sure, to the docks and as an advertisement, the vonture would have been invalu able. And if that impression remains with us to whom the Nieuw Heiland had not the greatest sigui- ficance, how much more damaging will be that left on the minds of Australia's most important mar- kets*"*
Criticisms from Java.
There were, as must be expected, some criticisms from papers in Java.
The Cheribon representative of the Handelsblad, Sourabaya, wrote: "Much interest was shown in the show by theiheribon public, hit the interest shown by the visi fors was not reciprocatod by the exhibitors, who could not be found at their stands "And these were other references of the same sort..
The following is an extract from De

Besides a vague report of tha possibility of an infistion announcement by the Administration, explanation of today's strength is lacking. However, the absence of liquidation plus the list's steadiness in opposing bearish trading senti- ment, played a part. It seems the market may present an early opportunity to test its ability to penetrate the high-levels. Hard pat to meet realising, local operators are bearish and cautious awaiting the Coston: The market was given Code of proposed restrictions. remarkable support from foreign and domestic trade interests.
