TRADE AND TARIFFS.
PROPOSED CONFERENCE AT HONOLULU. Per Press Association. WELLINGTON, Aug. 19. Passing through Wellington to-day were Dr Goddard, Director of the Hawaiian Bureau of Governmental Research, and Mr H. C. Tennant, who are endeavouring to arrange for a delegation from New Zealand to attend a commercial conference at Honolulu in May next year, the representatives being picked men from the United States, China and Japan, and it is hoped, other countries bordering on the Pacific, to discuss trade problems, including tariffs. Dr Goddard says the conference is purely a commercial and not a Government affair. Many business people in the United States were not satisfied with the present tariffs and the time was ripe for a round-table conference.
