JAPAN’S FOREIGN TRADE
PRECEDENT SEEN IN ITALY (Rec. 7 p.m.) TOKYO, June 8. Italy had provided a precedent that might enable Japan to enter private trade with other nations before signing the Japanese peace treaty, said officials of the Foreign Trade Board. They said that Italy had been permitted to trade overseas before the treaty was concluded, on the basis of a provisional exchange rate. A spokesman for the Tokyo Chamber of Commerce said that 121 private firms had already formally expressed their desire to engage in foreign trade. The countries with which they wanted to trade were, in order of preference, the United States, China, Southern Asia, India, Korea, Britain, Australia, and Europe.
