TRADE MARKS
ALLEGED JAPANESE PIRACY IN INDIAN COTTON TRADE. VEHEMENT DENIAL ISSUED. (United Press Association—By Cable— Copyright.) (Received 2, .10.30 a.m.) Calcutta, November 1. A strong accusation of trade marks piracy against Japan and an equally vehement denial is edifying the Indian business world. The discussion began when the chairman of the Manchester Chamber of Commerce declared that Japanese cotton goods manufacturers anil traders in India were copying English trade marks and trade designs, and that as a result of this piracy Lancashire was losing thousands of pounds sterling annually. Mr S. Kurihara, Consul for Japan, in an interview, characterised the allegations as absolutely baseless and emphasised that Japanese manufacturers and traders had no need to copy English trade marks and designs of cloths. Piece goods merchants in Calcutta and Bombay consider that the time has arrived for strong action to be taken.
