Maintaining Our Exports

Encouraging London Statement

Peaceful sleep for baby!

LONDON, Aug. 13 (Reuter).—Mr. Marcourt Johnstone, Secretary of the Department of Overseas Trade, in a statement on the Government's new measures for alding the export trade, said that the Export Council hitherto had formed about 270 export groups. and on a result, could claim for the first time in our economic history export that each of the principal sections of industry possessed a cen- tralised and completely representa- SCM 42-14 Live body for discussion and negotia- tion.

Primary Object

The primary object of these groups was to provide the allocation of raw materials for firms manufacturing for export, and to arrange the pool- ing of any sacrifices that may be entalled in comparison with more normal times.

It was really remarkable that in view of our total war effort, we should nevertheless have been able to maintain export trade on a scale

which on

Our exports in the critical month of June to countries not subject to the direct effects of the invasion were maintained and in some cases actually increased with many. markets in North and South America.

She departs invoking God's blessing on you, and you feel that she, anyhow, doesn't be- lieve the nine-husbands-and-a- apy story. Or that if she does "it doesn't matter.

So you lug a few more stones out of the wilderness, feeling as you do so that you know now how the Pyramids were built, and you set them along each side of a path made with sand from the seashore, so it is full of shells. It's all the "gravel" we know in these parts.

But Connemara is, full of stones, as Cromwell know when he drove the people here crying "to Connaught or to Hell |” What he didn't know was that people can live among stones- stones as old as God--and love

it.
