Britain's- international trad© may double itself in fifty years, Dr. Herbert Levinstein told the Imperial College of Science. He quoted figures showing that if the world raised its trade to the British, standard, the world's, commerce would be- mutiplied six fold. If the trading- capacity of the Asiatic equalled the African's, the world's trade would increase 30 per cent.Kussia's efforts to increase her manufactures would ultimately benefit the world. Dr. Levinstein said that there was no overproduction of food as the greater part of the population of the world was underfed. The. fall in commodity prices was originally due to the shortage of gold.' Britain could easily pay her war debt to America by mining weaker ores than private enterprise was prepared to mine. •- . .. . Dr. H. Levinstein, M.Sc, ' I\l.cl, was formerly managing-director of Levinstein's Ltd., and of the British Dyestuffs Corporation.
