NEW ZEALAND
WORLD’S GREATEST DAIRY EXPORTER (By Electric Telegraph —Copyright) (Australian and N.Z. Cable Association). LONDON, Sept. 8. Mr Harold Cox, writing in the Financial Times, combats Australia’s demand for preference. He quotes a Sydney Morning Herald’s leader of July 10th and declares that preference, instead of forming a bond of empire is likely to prepare the way for a dissolution. He emphasises the difficulty that Australia and Canada found after 30 years’ searching to find a basis for a reciprocal tariff arid insists that for over 60 years, threefifths of Britain’s overseas trade had been with foreign countries. These proportions still continue, despite the increasing trade of the Dominions. He concluded that the only road for the expansion of Imperial industries, consists in increased efficiency. While Australian Labourites blocked trade by socialistic fancies, New Zealand, through improved methods, had become the world’s greatest dairy produce exporter.
