JAPANESE TRADE.
NEW ZEALAND OPINION. SIR JAMES PARR. IN LONDON. (United Press Association—Copyright). LONDON, January 26. The subject of Japanese trade competition was one on which Sir James Parr, the new High Commissioner for New Zealand, who arrived to-day, spoke very strongly in a special interview granted to the “Daily Telegraph.’’ Sir Jambs said that the threat to New Zealand imports from Britain and to her own industries was most serious. “Our methods and our trade marks are copied and our markets are cut from under out feet,*” he said. “The shops are flooded and the prices would be laughable if it were not so disastrous. It seems to,me that the problem must be met by the Empire as a whole. Our manufacturers are in constant touch with the Government, which is in constant touch with the British Government. Australia is in exactly the same quandary.” . , The “Daily Telegraph,” in a leading article, says: “New barriers and antidumping regulations will not meet the whole of the difficulty. We have to consider Japanese competition in neutral markets as well as in our own.”
