TRADE WITH THE EAST
FIRMS TRY NEW PLYMOUTH
LETTERS FROM JAPAN AND INDIA. If New Zealand is not looking to the East for markets, the East certainly regards the Dominion as a prospective field for the disposal of its manufactures. Instances of this were noted at Thursday night's meeting of the Taranaki Chamber of Commerce when two letters were received from Eastern firms. A Japanese firm, of Osaka, wrote introducing themselves as importers of hides and exporters of leather goods, and asking the chamber to put them in touch With firms dealing in "some superior quality of pickled sheep grains to extend our import." "We are the consumers of about 1000-1300 dozens of sheep skins a month, and we are usually buying raw skins from every quarter of the world," the letter continued. "Can you handle our desire to some reliable suppliers of this lot of your country to get into business relation with us? If so we shall be pleased to hear from them directly as soon as possible." An Indian firm of sports goods manufacturers also desired the chamber to put them in touch with sports dealers.
