MEAT RESTRICTIONS. SHORT-TERM POLICY. (Received 12.30 p,m.) LONDON, February 8. Mr J. H. Thomas, Dominions Secretary, has reconvened for February 11 the meeting with thfe Dominion representatives adjourned on January 22. The object is to conclude a short tbrm quota agreement covering imports between April 1 and June 30.. Sir Frank Fox, journalist and author, formerly of Australia, in an article in the “National Review,” expresses the opinion that the restriction of imports from the Empire by Britain is a revolutionary development. : ■ “Serious effects on Empire migration, defence and investment must inevitably follow a policy which’ denies or limits our markets to our kindred for the benefit of foreign nations,” says the writer. “This policy is chiefly based on safeguarding British investments in foreign countries, but it must be remembered that we have many more millions invested in the Empire than in foreign countries.”
