Messrs. Imperial Chemical Industries have
reported that two Japanese soap factories in Shanghai,
which are manufacturing soap for the Japanese army, are
receiving caustic soda from Japan duty-free. Both these
factories sell in the open market also. Messrs. Imperial
Chemical Industries are agents for the Corn Products
Refining Company of New York, and sell goods produced by
the Korean subsidiary of that firm, the Nippon Kokusan
Kogyo Kabushiki Kaisha. Although the prices at which
Messrs. Imperial Chemical Industries obtain supplies from
this concern are the lowest they quote to any customer,
they have recently found themselves underquoted in the
Shanghai market in respect of Liquid Glucose manufactured
by the Nippon Kokusan Kogyo Kabushiki Kaisha, which has
probably been imported duty-free on the plea that it is
a necessary foodstuff.
77. The conclusion is therefore that, although
conditions are much better than they were before last
June, various commodities are sold in considerable
quantities which show that they have been imported duty-
free by the Japanese on various pretexts.

With the highest respect,

Your Lordship's most obedient,
humble servant,
