Success on the Economic Front

THE WAR WITHIN THE WAR

With shipping space one of the most precious commodi- ties, it is obvious that ships carrying, foodstuffs and raw

materials to Great Britain do not return empty. They load up supplies for British forces overseas and they carry Bri- tish export goods out in ex- change for our imports.

Since Continental markets. are cut off, Britain is supply- ing many of the former cus- tomers of Germany and the occupied territories despite the fact that her industrial areas are in the front line and that her first necessity is to produce the weapons of offence and defence. The total volume of export trade has been well maintained, and it is achieving, and will con- tinue to make an invaluable . contribution to the war effort.

There is, of course, a con- siderable element of selection, which must at times make things difficult for the expor- ter in Britain; the goods he would like to sell overseas may be needed here, or it may not he practicable to import the raw material for them, or his products may be very bulky in relation to its value so that it occupies too much shipping the oversea space. But for buyer who wishes to take answer is British goods the simple. He can safely buy anything that is offered in the assurance that he is helping Britain by so doing.

"Buy-British”

the maximum efficiency in the war effort, but the situation is rational and comprehensible if these main generalisations are borne in mind.

The goodwill of buyers in coun- tries overseas,

cas, their desire to help Britain in her struggle for free- dom, are obviously important fac- tors which must not be forgotten. The reception given to the Wil- lingdon Mission In South America proves again, if proof were needed, that this feeling does not exist only in the Empire and the United States.

But at the same time it would be wrong and misleading to think that these buyers are not

It undoubtedly is. The men and women of the British countries who have so notably shown their belief in the cause for which the Empire is fighting, can help that cause by sacri- flces in the economic field; they can avoid buying "hon- essentials outside the sterling area so that foreign exchange is conserved; but they can rest assured that British goods on sale in their mar- kels, whatever their class, would not be available there unless their export were as- sisting the war effort.

It is fairly obvious that shipping space is saved if the vessels re- turning Trom Britain go direct to the ports from which the Imports we need are drawn. It is a waste of time, which comes to the same thing as space, if they have to deliver British exports to one port and then go on
