CLUB
(Eeceh7ed 27th April, 2 p.m.)
LONDON, 26th April.
In the House of Commons Mr. G. L. M. Mander (L.) asked whether other countries were carrying on propaganda similar to the "Buy British" campaign, and if Britain proposed to recommend the abandonment of all such campaigns in the interest of the export trade.
Major Colville, Secretary for Overseas Trade, said that several European countries were conducting movements in the interests of home products. The "Buy British" campaign, organised by tfce Empire Marketing Board, had been completely successful, and he saw no reason to abandon it.
Mr. Mander: "Won't you try to break this international suicide club?"
Major Colville: "We shall continue to ask people to buy goods^rom" Empire peoples who are willing to buy largely from us."
