Government To Safeguard Interests RELATIONS WITH BRITAIN Action is 'being taken by the Government to safeguard the interests of manufacturers and employees in industries which are being harmfully affected by excessive importations, according to a statement made in an interview last night by the Prime Minister. Kt. Hon. M. J. Savage. “Discussions have taken place between the Government mid representatives both of the employers and the employees in the industries,” Mr. Savage said, “and the steps to be taken are being worked out in detail. While ensuring that our trade and relations with the United Kingdom are being fully and carefully safeguarded, the Government is determined not to allow men and women employed in the Dominion to be thrown out of work through importation of commodities that should and can be made in the Dominion. The Government realises the urgency of the matter, and I liope to be able to make a statement setting out the procedure to be followed within a fortnight.”
