TRADE WITH INDIA
EFFECT OF OTTAWA
JAPAN A NEW FACTOR
(Received September 14, 10 a.m.)
LONDON, September 13,
The report of tho. Board of Trade's Commissionex' for India for the three months from April to June, 1933, furnishes a striking illustration of tho effect of Ithe Ottawa Agreements on India's import trade. In nearly every item in which there is preferenco tho United Kingdom has improved its ,porcentago of trade. In most cases \the shipments have actually increased, although.the total shipments are reduced. United • Kingdom products are gradually displacing Continental and American goods, but Japan's competition is increasingly severe in a steadily-widen-ing range of articles. The disparity between the United Kingdom and Japanese prices is usually so wide that tho .10 per cent, preference is entirely inadequate.
