Its Present Position and Prospects.
Dr. Herbert Levinstein contributed to the annual Trade Heview of the Fork di Pust an important article on the British dye-stuff industry. It is an article 4 dealing largely with the future. † for Dr. Levinstein considers that
siderable amount of alarm and the Brat great purpose of the in
there is a pronounced fear that the trade in cotton goods and cor- on yarn with China is going to receive a serious setback upon rbe introduction of the new sch-- dule allowed by the ruling of the Washington Conference.
Taking the official 6gures for the year of 1921, which state that the trade with China in cotton yarn and cotton goods amounted to Y.150,000,000, the experts fizure a redaction of (?) .3,500,000 in This loss will be a exports. serious blow to the smaller con- corns engaged in the enterprise, and when it is considered the the majority of firms engaged in this phase of industry are of that type, the question immediately becomes a very serious one,
There are some who suggest that the Japanese should raise the price of goods shipped out to Chins, but there are others of the more conservative tyoe who claim such a policy would be suicidal to the industry in this country.
PROPOSAL TO START MILLS IN CHINA.

dustry has been amply fulfilled,
and that a new task now kex before it. From 1914 to the sign. ing of the Armistice the industry enabled Great Britain and the Allies to clothe their fighting forces and between November 1918 and the end of 1920 it placed British manufacturers' and mer- chants in an exceptional position to take advantage of the world's scarcity of textiles.
For it should be remembered that during this latter period Ger- man dyes could not be obtained by this country in any consider- able quantity until well into 1920, while the imports of dye-stuffs from Switzerland, contrary to a widespread impression, formed a amall proportion of the talki quantity used. "I believe it to be the case," says Dr. Levinstein, "that the substantial burden of these difficult years was borne by British manufacturers."
PRESENT DEPRESSION, Indeed he points out, during 1919 and 19:0' none of the belli- gerent countries outside Germany was so well supplied with dyes as the United Kingdom. In 1921 a A general meeting of the spin-Tezinaing was made of the more nere will be held at a near date difficult task of establishing in and one of the propositions put up peace time a dye-stuff industry for consideration is that of d-vel-capable of competing with those oping the primitive industry in of other countries and securing a Chins itself, with Japanese capital and under Japanese management. This, it is claimed. can be done easily by using the Japanese cap ital no lied up by the spinning companies in what is called the reserve fund. At the same time, it is maintained, this section will stimulate and promote the pur- chasing power of the Chinese chemcives,
share in the neutral markets of the world. This task was serious-
ly complicated by the slump
