We shall hope to have the benefit of the views of the Piece Goods Guild and of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce as to the amendments of the existing contract which are desirable from their point of view, and shall do our best to meet them. Finally, it is to be hoped that ali agreed date for the coming into force of a revised contract will be mutually agreed by importers and the Guild.

The Chamber of Commerce will keep merchants informed and they will be asked to attend a meeting later on to approve, or otherwise, the contract as rovised.
