Empire Trade With Japan

Barriers To British Goods

Westminster, Mar. 1. GREAT BRITAIN cannot negotiate with a part of the British Empire. Other countries can. Japan is at

present negotiating a trade agreement direct with Burma. Great Britain is compelled to negotiate with India and Burma jointly.

The Commons heard about this pecullor. sinte of affairs to-night from Mr. Butler, Under Secretary for India. He explained a series of Orders regulating trade between India and Burma under the new self-governing constitutions of those two parts of the British Empire.

There is free trade between Indla and Burma. According to Mr. But- ler, duties on United Kingdom. goods entering India and Burma muşt remain at their present levels unless they can be modified by negotiation with India and Burma jelntly.

Yet Mr. Butler told members that trade negotiations are at present

between proceeding

Japan and Burma. He understood that agree- ment had been secured, akhough he was not aware of Its nature. "I can only hope." he added comfortingly. "that when members see the agree ment they will not find it unsatisfac- Lory."
