NOT SOUND.
PROHIBITION OF MOTOR CARS PROTEST BY TRADERS. REPLY TO MANUFACTURERS. (By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.) CHRISTCHURCH, this day. A statement on behalf of the New Zealand Motor Traders' Association, Canterbury branch, of which he is president, was made by Mr. K. E. England in connection with the attitude of the Canterbury Manufacturers' Association towards imports. '■The suggestion that the importation of motor cars should be prohibited for one year, and that chassis only should be allowed to enter the country after that would be a terrible thing in practice." said Mr. England. ''The prohibition of motor car imports would throw hundreds of men out of work at once. If cars are not coming into the country then the large stalTs now carried by importers must be reduced or dispensed with. Which ever way the suggestion is regarded it is economically unsound."'
