It would therefore be necessary to introduce export
licensing which would be ineffective if limited to
the U.S. market. More general application would be
administratively an excessive burden and politically
highly objectionable.
3. From our own experience of quota restrictions or
cotton textiles, we think a value basis would be
unworkable, both as a way of giving equitable
treatment to manufacturers of widely different classes
means of preventing concentration
of goods anxi
on particular sectors of the market.
It is probable that the same objections outlined
above would apply in most other textile exporting
countries. We agree to the other points made in
Telegram no. 297.
