A large meeting of the Australasian section of tho London Chamber of Commerce, ,and others interested, adopted tho following resolutions :— That this meeting protests' against the imposition of further/' duties, on British goods, which, despite the financial support recorded to Australian industries l>y merchants and investors; will seriously harm manufacturing industries in tho United Kingdom.
That the preference given to British goods, although small, is thankfully received, iii the hope that it will shortly be increased.
