BRITISH RUBBER BAN
GOVERNMENT UPHELD FOR ENDING RESTRICTIONS. BUT INDUSTRY NEEDS TIME FOR READJUSTMENT. United Press Assn, by El. Tel. Copyright (Australian Press Association.) (Received April 19, 11.30 p.m.) LONDON, April 19. Sir Erie Geddes, presiding at the annual meeting of the Dunlop .Rubber Company expressed the' opinion that tlie Government was right in ending the rubber - restrictions, but wrong in doing so without fuller regard to the interests involved. The industry should be- given more than seven months’ notice to adjust itself. The restriction had failed to give manufacturers anything like stable prices, ".lie hoped it would never be resuscitated. An anxious period would undoubtedly intervene, «lut there was' no doubt that the rubber industry as a whole will, be sturdier, stronger and more stable if allowed to manage its own affairs.
